On November 13, 2016, Dr. Seuss Enterprises filed a complaint in California federal court accusing Hauman's website, ComicMix, of violating the intellectual property of Theodor S. Geisel (aka Dr. Seuss) with its crowd-funded book Oh, The Places You'll Boldly Go!, a portmanteau of the Dr. Seuss children's book Oh, the Places You'll Go!, and the phrase to boldly go where no one has gone before, from Star Trek. The lawsuit stated that Hauman's book, which parodies both Star Trek and various Dr. Seuss books, including Oh, The Places You'll Go!, Horton Hears a Who!, How the Grinch Stole Christmas!, The Lorax, and The Sneetches and Other Stories, copied Dr. Seuss' copyrighted work, including recreating entire pages from his books "with meticulous precision." The lawsuit also stated that the book's violation of Dr. Seuss' trademark would create confusion in the minds of the public as to Dr. Seuss's approval or licensing. The defendants maintained that the satirical nature of the ComicMix book is protected under Fair Use.{{cite web|author=Gardner, Eriq|date=March 12, 2019|title='Star Trek'/Dr. Seuss Mashup Deemed Copyright Fair Use by Judge|magazine=The Hollywood Reporter|url=https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr-esq/star-trek-dr-seuss-mashup-deemed-a-fair-use-by-judge-1194166|access-date=May 29, 2019|archive-date=March 30, 2019|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190330061223/https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr-esq/star-trek-dr-seuss-mashup-deemed-a-fair-use-by-judge-1194166}} In May 2018, U.S District Court Judge Janis Sammartino found in favor of ComicMix on the issue of Dr. Seuss' trademark, ruling that its book was "a highly transformative work that takes no more than necessary to accomplish its transformative purpose and will not impinge on the original market for Plaintiff's underlying work."{{cite web|author=Gardner, Eriq|date=May 22, 2018|title='Star Trek'/Dr. Seuss Mashup Creator Beats Trademark Claims|magazine=The Hollywood Reporter|url=https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr-esq/star-trek-dr-seuss-mashup-creator-beats-trademark-claims-1113911|access-date=May 29, 2019|archive-date=March 30, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190330200559/https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr-esq/star-trek-dr-seuss-mashup-creator-beats-trademark-claims-1113911}} In March 2019, Sammartino similarly found in favor of ComicMix on the issue of copyright, ruling that Oh, The Places You'll Boldly Go! was protected under Fair Use.{{cite web|author=Gardner, Eriq|date=March 12, 2019|title='Star Trek'/Dr. Seuss Mashup Deemed Copyright Fair Use by Judge|magazine=The Hollywood Reporter|url=https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr-esq/star-trek-dr-seuss-mashup-deemed-a-fair-use-by-judge-1194166|access-date=May 29, 2019|archive-date=March 30, 2019|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190330061223/https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr-esq/star-trek-dr-seuss-mashup-deemed-a-fair-use-by-judge-1194166}}
