KOKI-TV
The slogan used to promote its film offerings from the station's sign-on until 1984, "Oklahoma's Movie Star" (based off the title of the station's "Movie Star" film presentations), would be the center of a federal trademark infringement lawsuit that Tulsa 23 Ltd. filed against Home Box Office Inc. in October 1982 in over the "We Are Your Movie Star" image campaign implemented by Cinemax earlier that year. James Ellison, the U.S. District Court judge presiding over the case in the Oklahoma Eastern District court, granted an injunction against Home Box Office in November 1983, on grounds that the Cinemax campaign infringed upon KOKI's trademark. HBO appealed the ruling in the Denver-based Tenth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals, which upheld Ellison's injunction order, forcing Cinemax to discontinue the campaign and begin developing a replacement on December 9.
