Two days ago we noted how a funny UDRP response from a Swiss domain registrant must have brought a smile or two to the WIPO panelist.
While infusion of humor in UDRP responses isn’t rare – attorney John Berryhill is known to add caustic humor commentary in his responses – some Respondents self-represent themselves or simply reply via email, ignoring the specific format requirements.
With that in mind, Hourglass Angel LLC brought a UDRP against the Registrant of the domain HourglassAngelGirls.com.
According to the UDRP:
“Complainant and its predecessor corporation have sold women’s shapeware under the HOURGLASS ANGEL mark continuously since 2007, through a website at the domain name <hourglassangel.com>. Complainant states that it has sold these products to customers in all 50 U.S. states and in 25 countries. A U.S. registration for Complainant’s HOURGLASS ANGEL mark issued in 2014.”
The Respondent emailed the UDRP panel, sending the following response:
“Yall don’t need to be contacting me I bought my domain name from a company so if they had it for sale and I purchased you need to contact them and quit sending me emails damn!! It’s a million other company’s with similar names and domain names so why are they targeting me??? They should take that up with who I bought if from I’m a consumer”
This has to be one of the funniest (non)responses to a UDRP summons! 😀
Naturally, the panelist David E. Sorkin ordered the domain to be transferred to the Complainant. For the full text of this UDRP, y’all visit this link, damn!
Hey! Who is stealing my UDRP responses and passing them around?
Y’all cut it out!
Damn!
Y’all Quittit! Crackin me up!
Damn!!
