Legal Question in Intellectual Property in Florida

Implied Copyright on my menu

I own a restaurant and had my restaurant menu stolen from me by my ex-spouse who is now opening up a restaurant near me with the same menu. Do I have legal recourse and standing?

If your menu contains original and distinctive elements you would have a case in copyright infringement as well as other business law theories.
