Malaysia court rules 'Mc' prefix not exclusive to McDonald's
April 29, 2009
The Economic Times: McDonald's has lost a suit in Malaysia, resulting in a local Indian food outlet, McCurry Restaurant, to use "Mc" in its business signage.
The Kuala Lumpur Court of Appeal held that there was no evidence to show that McCurry Restaurant, whose tagline is 'Malaysian Chicken Curry,' was passing off McDonald's business as its own.
