Legendary Black Sabbath leader Ozzy Osbourne had started the court procedure against his old collegue and the band’s guitarist Tony Iommy, said Blabbermouth. The reason for such an action is Ozzy’s disappointment over Iommy’s rights to literally own “Black Sabbath” trademark, which now legally belongs to him with the help of U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. As Osbourne says, Black Sabbath guitarist had registered “Black Sabbath” as a brand without having any legal rights to do so, at least without consulting him. Ozzy is insisting on changing the registration documents and wants 50% share. What particular role is Sharon Osbourne (Ozzy’s wife and manager) playing in this process? Maybe she is involved, hence Sharon is a huge business lady and knows how to count money very well. Her strong influence on Ozzy is also quite famous. On the other hand, Iommy was not supposed to do something like this because how he could forget to include one and the only real frontman of Black Sabbath. Of course, he was (Ozzy) not the only one to participate in the band, but he was the original and without any doubt the best. In addition to this news, Ozzy also wants some of those money Iommy was making while totally possessing “Black Sabbath” as a brand. Iommy should better give something to Ozzy because truthfully it’s not really fair.
