The Domain of Jesus, a non-denominational church in Alabama, decided that playing nice wasn’t going to cut it, so they took their case to the WIPO.

Zumba – the fitness class company – is on a UDRP roll. After the recent win of ZumbaClasses.com and TheZumbaDVD.com, Zumba hit at another pair of ‘zumba’ domains at the National Arbitration Forum. This time around, ZumbaLove.com was turned over to the Complainant, Zumba corporation – that (just so happens) to own a registered trademark [...]

The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) is getting one major overhaul, that will improve the way the patent and trademark information and data are displayed. Domainers often peruse USPTO.gov to determine the existence or status of a trademark, prior to acquiring domain names. It is also where WIPO panelists go to determine the [...]

You probably saw the fake picture from “Who Wants to be a Millionaire” circulating today; even the prestigious DNJournal fell prey to the obviously doctored screen grab.

In late July we posted how a UDRP brought against the domain name, OneLove.net, was denied. The OneLove.net owner demonstrated fair use of the domain since 1998, although it was not over the web but rather, email. It seems that the same Complainant went after the dot com as well, and they failed to grab [...]

A UDRP over at the National Arbitration Forum was turned down, for the domain name OneLove.net. There are a couple of reasons why the Respondent won the case, despite the existing trademark by the Complainant. Firstly, the domain’s registration of 1998 predates the trademark. But most importantly, the Respondent used the domain – but not [...]

Advance Auto Parts failed to win a UDRP against a typosquatter, because according to the single-member panel, it failed to demonstrate that it suffered a loss from the typodomains in question! Other points made by the National Arbitration Forum panelist include that tarnishing one’s trademark is not the business of a UDRP. The cherry on [...]
