The Supreme Court gives final judgment on Triana: the only living member does not own the name of the group

The Supreme Court has ruled definitively on a long-standing legal dispute over the name of the historic rock group Triana. The court confirmed previous rulings by lower courts, stating that Eduardo Rodríguez Rodway, the sole living founder of the band, does not own the rights to the group’s songs or the name itself. The decision was based on the fact that another founding member, Tele Palacios, had registered the name before his death in 2002, and his widow inherited those rights. This allowed a new band to continue using the original name. The ruling ends years of litigation, with the Supreme Court dismissing Rodriguez Rodway’s appeal and confirming that he has not provided sufficient evidence to support his claims. The court emphasized that the rights to the brand and music belong to those who have officially registered them.
