14 Corbin Times-Tribune, Sunday, November 27,1977 Firms Battle Over Presley Weekend Television Schedule MEMPHIS, Term. (AP) A federal judge says he will rule next week whether a non-profit Memphis group has the right to erect a statue of the late Elvis Presley and distribute pewter miniatures of the statue to raise money. Judge Harry W. Wellford of U.S. District Court heard arguments Friday in a marketing rights dispute bet- ween the Memphis Develop- ment Foundation and Factors, Etc.

Inc. of Bear, over the right to distribute Presley souvenirs. The foundation has filed an $8 million dollar lawsuit against Factors claiming the firm has waged a campaign to eliminate competiton in distribution of Presley materials. Factors, which claims exclusive marketing rights to Presley souvenirs, has filed a countersuit against the foun- dation. The issue in the case Is whether the rights to manufacture and sell a famous person's image can be passed on to the individual's heirs at death.

Since there is no Tennessee law governing the specific questions in the case, Wellford said, his ruling is likely to set a precedent. Ronald S. Borod, attorney for the foundation, argued Friday that the right expires at death. Otherwise, he said, descendants of Benjamin Franklin and Paul Revere would be entitled to payment for commercial exploitation of their names and images. But attorney John Thomason, who represents Factors in the case, said the right to privacy dies with the individual, but the right to publicity may be passed on to the individual's heirs.

said the contract between Venum Presley and the company was a logical extension of similar contracts made by Elvis during his life. The foundation, which is seeking $276,000 for its proposed Presley memorial, is offering pewter statuettes for con- tributions of $25 or more toward the effort. Immediately after the foundation announced plans to erect the memorial and offer the miniatures, Factors threatened to file suit blocking themove.
