Anita Mui’s Mum Threatens To Disown Son If He Insists On Suing Producers Of The Late Singer’s Biopic
Anita's brother, Mui Kai Ming, has accused Edko Films of infringing his rights to two registered trademarks, which he said caused him to suffer an unspecified amount in financial losses.
The 98-year-old mother of Anita Mui, Tam Mei Kam, has threatened to cut ties with her eldest son, Mui Kai Ming, if he insists on suing the production company behind Anita, the biopic about the late Canto-pop diva.
Last week, Kai Ming, 70, filed a lawsuit against Edko Films alleging that it had infringed copyright to two registered trademarks, including the name “Anita Mui”, without his authorisation in the production of the film, causing him to suffer an unspecified amount in financial losses.
In addition to compensation for his losses, he is seeking two injunctions to stop the company from continuing the alleged infringement and to hand over all materials bearing the trademarks.
