Dan Henderson Sues Matt Lindland Over Team Quest Ownership

Long time training partners Dan Henderson and Matt Lindland
are ready to settle their differences, not in the cage, but in a court
of law. In February, Henderson filed suit alleging trademark
infringement, copyright infringement, and unfair competition. The former
Pride champion claimed that he and teammate Randy Couture
founded Team Quest in 1999 and were using the name a distinct logo
before Lindland joined the duo a year later. Although he admits to being
aware that Lindland has been using the Team Quest name and logo for a
decade continuously, Henderson contends they belong to him - and he
wants them back.
Last week Lindland fired back with an answer and counterclaim.
Lindland says Henderson was never an owner of Team Quest, rather that
Lindland and Couture entered into business together in gym built inside a
warehouse located on a used car lot Lindland owned near Portland,
Oregon. While Henderson did wear a Team Quest t-shirt to events in
Japan, it was Lindland and Couture who built a business selling MMA
instruction and apparel, creating a reputation of excellence throughout
the MMA world.

I heard about this months and months ago from posters on other forums but it never came with an actual source so i never posted a thread about it.

Seems Team Quest has been split in two for awhile now since Couture left, though i think Hendo corners Sonnen at Affliction 2. You got Lindland and Chael in Oregon and Dan Henderson in California.
