Oh man, Margaret! I was rooting for you!Are we shocked?
Another day…another court battle for Real Housewives of New Jersey rookie Margaret Josephs!
The RHONJ newcomer has been navigating a legal mine field in connection to her lifestyle brand, Macbeth Collection.
Allow me to recap you…
In 2014, Margaret’s company, Macbeth Collection, was sued for $12 million by clothing company, Vineyard Vines, — but a new development in the case may bring the reality diva to her knees!
As reported, Margaret has a history of pilfering products, logos, and ideas from various companies — and calling them her own.
According to legal documents obtained by AllAboutTheTea.com, Vineyard Vines accused Margaret’s company of trademark counterfeiting, trademark infringement, unfair competition, and copyright infringement. The judge ruled in favor of Vineyard Vines, and the MacBeth company was ordered to pay $300,000 to Vineyard Vines for stealing their logo and using it on MacBethproducts. However, Margaret never paid Vineyard Vines the total $300k judgement — and the company is now seeking $9.4 million in statutory and liquidated damages. MacBeth only made payments totaling $190,000 — 2/3 of the total amount of the agreed-to Order.
Court documents state:
“That Defendants, Macbeth, MCBMJ and Margaret Josephs, shall pay Vineyard Vines the sum of $9,411,657.21, representing $110,000.00 of the Judgment Amount remaining unpaid, the Additional Debt of $20,000.00, $500,000.00 in liquidated damages in accordance with the Consent Judgment, statutory damages in the amount of $8,600,000.00 and $201.657.21 in Vineyard Vines’ actual expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, associated with the enforcement of the Consent Judgment, and it is further”
Read court documents below:
Margaret’s company, MacBeth Designs LLC, then filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy on November 1, 2016 — a dirty tactic commonly used to avoid paying judgements in lawsuits. The Bankruptcy case is still pending.
Ironically, while all of this legal drama between Margaret and Vineyard Vines was going down another company sued and won a judgement from her as well. That company managed to freeze her company’s bank accounts.
The RHONJ newcomer’s business was accused of not only stealing a popular tote bag design — but of having the look knocked off and manufactured in Chinese sweatshops. The court ordered Margaret’s company to cease all use and operation of the copied Vineyard Vines designs but the company claims the order was ignored.
“That Defendants immediately cease and desist from any and all further violations of the Permanent Injunction and Final Judgment on Consent (DKT. 70), immediately recall, remove and ready for destruction any and all of Defendants’ illegal and illicit Infringing Products from the marketplace, in transit or in inventory, as well as any and all related marketing and advertising materials or references present in any media, electronic media or otherwise.”
Margaret’s company accuses Vineyard Vines of undertaking a “scorched earth,” campaign through extensive litigation and making misstatements to bolster its claims of continued infringement violations.
Margaret touts the “fake it til you make it” way of life — and it looks like her philosophy has spilled onto the Bravo stage.

Why does Siggy call her husband by his first and last names? Why not just Michael, or my husband? Why Michael Campanella? It's weird.
Reminds me of Lisa Rinna calling her husband Harry Hamlin all the time!! LOL
At least most of us know who Harry Hamlin is
At least Harry Hamlin is famous and has good alliteration! I was watching Law & Order: True Crime and Harry Hamlin popped up as one of the attorneys, and of course I said his name to myself in her voice.
He was on some talk show and I said 'look at Harry Hamlin'. Then I caught myself and just had to laugh
These women are a disaster and every single one of them needs a makeover. I think Siggy might need more than hormones, she is nuts.
I am ready for the Siggy/Margaret feud to be over. What Siggy said to Margaret after the cake throw "go f--- yourself" was much worse than anything Margaret said. Siggy calling Margarets accessory line "china stuff" when she had a fake purse party the previous episode. Sticking out her tongue and behaving like a total nutcase.
I think the only one I care for this season is Teresa's dad. You can see the depth of his sadness. He was absolutely right that Tre's daughters are spoiled and need the word no. The way they talk to her is horrible. Even the little one who always seemed to adore her is becoming a brat and talking back.

I get teenagers can be sullen and moody sometimes, especially if they feel like their parents are embarrassing them in public, but the way all the girls were behaving at the photo shoot was atrocious.
