So is this application related to the operators of the domain name, EV.com?
Is this trademark application linked to the domain EV.com?
If the applicant/attorney is providing services to the EV.com company, that’d be the case; then again, it’d be an application listing the EV.com company as the applicant.
Which brings up an interesting point: Can anyone register a trademark that incorporates a domain name they do not own or operate?
Meanwhile, the operators of the domain EV.com acquired the domain name EV.fr via Sedo recently, after spending 120,000 euro on it.
