JAKARTA - Posan Tobing, Icez, and Julie Angel alias Pare are three former KOTAK personnel who have been fighting with KOTAK personnel for the past few years, namely Tantri, Cella, and Chua.
In November 2024, Posan Tobing cs filed a civil lawsuit with the Sleman District Court over the registration of KOTAK's name as a brand to HAKI.
However, in the lawsuit, the plaintiff only listed Cella's name as the defendant who had defaulted.
Posan said that his party was disappointed because the plaintiff as KOTAK's initial personnel was not involved in registering the name.
"So don't, 'WE ARE BOXES'. Meanwhile, the founders or the founders of KOTAK, Pare and Icez, don't know beforehand why the name suddenly appeared at HAKI, and it has been registered," Posan Tobing told the media crew in Kuningan, South Jakarta, Wednesday, May 21.
The 42-year-old drummer also has a reason why only Cella has been sued. The reason is, Cella is KOTAK's initial personnel, while Tantri and Chua join then to replace Pare and Icez.
"Why don't we just call Tantri and Chua (in the lawsuit), because we know they don't understand anything about the founder of KOTAK. Even we don't even know him yet when he made this (band), suddenly the name has been registered at HAKI," said Posan.

"That's a form of disappointment for us. That's why we came to the District Court with our attorneys, it turned out that at the District Court I just found out, it turned out that N/O (Niet Ontvankelijk Verklaard or it could not be accepted)," he added.
Posan cs has also filed an appeal to the Yogyakarta High Court, which again rejected the lawsuit and upheld the previous decision.
However, Posan did not want to stop until the appeal stage at the Yogyakarta High Court. He stated that his party would take further legal steps, and hoped that the cassation at the Supreme Court could grant his lawsuit.
"Well, hopefully later at the Supreme Court, because we will file an appeal. So, it has not been signed," said Minola Sebayang as the attorney for three former KOTAK personnel.
"We will file an appeal, our calculation is the deadline until May 28. Once we file an appeal, we will send a memorandum of cassation," concluded Minola.
