From paragraph 3 of the complaint: "ParkingLot is an authorized use of plaintiff's copyrighted Puzzle."

The tangled situation with the "Ray's" trademark seems entirely the fault of the original founder, who apparently started multiple locations under the name and then sold at least one of them to somebody else who kept running it under the same or similar name, and then proceeded to start more branches and then sell some of them to still other people, without anybody in that whole sequence of events signing any agreement clarifying the name ownership, until there were several "Ray's Pizza" places with varying ownership and in turn inspiring other copycats, and not until this horse was long out of the barn did anybody try clamping down on it.
