Logo Usage without rights

jantheman91

Hi,

Just looking for some help regarding this problem i'm having.

I was in a partnership with three other people and we all agreed to split the price of the logo four ways.

I paid for the logo myself and have the paypal transaction as well as skype chats with the designer to prove i paid for the logo, and nobody else.

I have since parted way with these three people and they are still using the logo. They have the png file as i sent it to them in confidence when we were still in ''business''.

As far as i'm aware as long as i can show proof that i paid for the logo in it's entirity and can get the designer to back that up, they have no right to use it.

Bare in mind this is a logo for an eSports team and the people using it are under the age of 18.

Is there any way i can stop them using it? Perhaps through threatening with legal action, as i know they won't have the money to go down that route and i do.

The logo is worth 30 dollars but i'm doing this for the principle. Why should they be allowed to use the logo when it was me who paid for it?

Any help and direction is appreciated. Many thanks.
