Knudsen registered the name Graceland Randers in 2006, about five years before the opening in 2011. In 2015 a lawsuit was filed against him for unlawful use of the name of Graceland. The Maritime and Commercial Court justified the claim of the heirs in September 2016 and imposed an indemnification of 500,000 Danish krones (approximately 75,000 dollars). Prior to the judgement, the name was changed to Memphis Mansion. The claim that counterfeit articles of Elvis had been sold was declared unfounded.[4]
