Then the reputation of its lawyers for trivial law suits began to circulate--they forced a school which had paid an artist to put Disney characters on their building to remove them.

When my older sister was in high school (way before Eisner's Day) they had to re-do their senior pin which had featured one of the seven dwarfs. What was a mystery was how the Disney Corp had even found out about it.

The "artist" they paid should have known this.
