Udrp Decision By Aussie Panelist

[Data Glasses]

Here is a link to a name that seems quite generic in it's nature but was lost after an aussie 'judge and jury' decided it was bad faith

What do you think about this one ?

Harsh. Is there any recourse for the defendant in these cases or does it go to court?

 

[findtim]

it took them from 1984 to 2001 and they still hadn't registered their domain name ! now they complain.

AND its canary not coca cola ! , next they will make the canary islands change there name ! or perhaps the bird no has to change its name to horatio ?

silly decision.

What did the 500 pound canary say?

[DomainNames]

Not very good publicity for the judge. Getting a lot of global media & forum coverage they made a mistake in their comments and findings / ruling including legal forums

100% Generic dictionary word. Should have been complaint denied and a go to naughty corner ruling made for complainant wasting everyones time and money

what happened to "domains are registered on first come basis" ..... in policies and complaint handling.

[peterpan]

Excuse my ignorance but why is the dispute in mandarin/chinese for .com UDRP dispute by someone who on the face does not appear to be chinese?

Bad decision - though that happens both ways at times. Sounds like the money saved for only having one panellist backfired.
