Mattel Inc. sued a small company on Tuesday for using the toymaker's famed "Barbie" trademark as part of the name for a pornographic Web site it owned.
The lawsuit, filed in Manhattan federal court, said the Web site www.chinabarbie.com had used the Barbie trademark to capture the positive image Mattel had created through its "Barbie" products. (http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20070822/od_nm/barbie_suit1_dc;_ylt=AueRx8a0yBWh3qDI4sjj46jtiBIF)
