    Looking for Advice and Opinions re: Imminent Expert Decision

    You are correct I have remained calm throughout, thats not to say I've haven't had a few sleepless nights though.The complainant was not going to give up IMO, I had, albeit unknowningly, done wrong, and by discussions with the mediator and posts here I decided it was the best thing to do.

    Looking for Advice and Opinions re: Imminent Expert Decision

    UPDATE: I agreed to pay legal costs and the .co.uk domain has been transferred and the .eu is in the process of doing the same. I honestly didn't realize just how stupid I was in reg the domains. at the time I also didn't know or bother to check:(, that the name was TM'd. Still, we live and...

    Looking for Advice and Opinions re: Imminent Expert Decision

    Well, as this is all new to me I have found it too be rather daunting and very frustrating. I accept that wrongs have been made and I have at all times corrected them as and when pointed out by the complainant before and during the mediation process. I suppose ignorance is not a good defence...

    Looking for Advice and Opinions re: Imminent Expert Decision

    Its a made up word, but the TM was only granted less than 2 years ago and a google search only throws up 7k results. My argument is that if the .co.uk was so important to them , then why didnt they reg the .co.uk at the same time. Oh, and did I mention I also have the .eu and .tel ! and the...

    Looking for Advice and Opinions re: Imminent Expert Decision

    Hello everyone, found this forum last week while looking for info. I never realize d just how interesting domains could be! Anyhow, as of today a DRS mediation has been closed and it's almost a certainty that the complainant will request an Expert decision. Basically, I was trading for a...
