The former business partner of Jose “Chille” DeCastro, Collin “Project Constitution” Campbell, announced on Kate Peter’s Discord forum on Thursday that he had filed a challenge to DeCastro’s recent trademark application.
DeCastro is attempting to trademark the brand name “DeleteLawZ” and had filed his application on February 21, 2024, using an intermediary named Nicklas Failla. Despite DeCastro’s claims that he had also trademarked his likeness and other phrases in relation to his persona, only the single trademark currently exists on record.
Campbell’s complaint claimed that he owns 50% of DeCastro’s business ventures and trademarks, entering a partnership with DeCastro in 2023 before DeCastro reneged on the partnership in September of 2023. He indicated that he reserved the right to take DeCastro to court over enforcing his rights as co-owner of the DeleteLawZ brand.
Friday saw more action by Campbell as he indicated that he had issued a Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) takedown notice against DeCastro’s DeleteLawZ.com website. Campbell outlined many of the same claims as in his trademark dispute in his takedown notice, claiming partial ownership of the trademark of products offered for sale on DeCastro’s site.
Campbell is also awaiting service of a protection order a court issued against DeCastro earlier in the year after DeCastro made several threats on his daily live infomercial, doxing Campbell and instructing his fans to brigade Campbell’s phone.
DeCastro’s DeleteLawZ.com website was restored on Friday afternoon after crashing shortly after his incarceration in Nevada on Wednesday after being found guilty of obstructing and interfering in a traffic stop. It is unclear when or if Amazon will act on Campbell’s DMCA takedown request.
