Apparently, there can’t be two mice in town.
Deadmau5 has been rocking his mouse head for over 10 years now, but it looks like Disney now has a problem with it, TMZ reports.

The DJ – whose real name is Joel Zimmerman – tweeted yesterday that Disney had filed an opposition to his U.S. trademark application for his logo.

Zimmerman's attorney told TMZ that he already has trademarks in 30 countries, including the U.K. and Japan.
According to the United Stated Patent and Trademark Office, Zimmerman filed his most recent application on August 18, 2014.
The description for his logo was included in the application: "Color is not claimed as a feature of the mark. The mark consists of a caricature of a mouse head with the letter "X" over each eye and the word, in a stylized format, "deadmau5" centered beneath the mouse head."
