In April 2001, Oprah Winfrey and the _Hearst Corporation were sued for trademark infringement by Ronald Brockmeyer, the publisher of O Magazine, a German erotic periodical which predated Winfrey's magazine by several years. In a March 2003 decision, Judge John Koeltl dismissed the suit, citing the different content of the two magazines and the irregular publication schedule and minimal American sales of the German magazine.
