Interesting to note some of the co-defendants: Sedo Oversee.net Which run Domainsponsor.com also owns the following Chesterton Holdings, Jucco Holdings, Maltuzi and registrar Nameking.com who are cited for domain tasting and Snapnames.com for auctioning expired domains. Doster It is also an opened 'class action' refering to 'Un-Named Co-Conspirators' - other parking companies, registratrs and registrants, refererred to as 'John Does' I guess given the large pockets of the defendants and the wide ranging nature of the class action - it may be a long time before there is an outcome. Might be interesting though to see if parking companies start to tighten their domain approval criteria. One to watch if nothing else for entertainment value JohnP |

But it is possible to have a trademark on such a word and a trademark has to be defended. Otherwise it lapses. The latest on the case is that the damages being asked for are $1M. That looks extraordinarily reasonable by US standards. Google might defend but it is not the target of this suit. It could have a major impact on the domaining business if it gets farther. http://dockets.justia.com/docket/cou...ase_id-210005/ Regards...jmcc Last edited by jmcc; 03-07-2007 at 04:53:10 PM. | |
