Michael Jordan Expected To Testify In Trial Over Use Of Likeness

The case "revolves around an ad published six years ago by the now-defunct grocer that featured Jordan's name and his famous number '23.'" Jordan is "expected to attend and testify." A "key issue will be the amount of money Jordan is paid for the use of his likeness." The trial is "expected to last until Aug. 20 at the latest" (SUNTIMES.com, 8/10).
