First .uk reverse domain name hijacking decision
1st October, 2002
In a decision released today (Cardpoint plc -v- Riga Industries), the UK domain name authority Nominet has upheld a claim of reverse domain name hijacking under its Dispute Resolution Service (DRS) - the UK equivalent of the UDRP - for the first time.
Reverse domain name hijacking occurs when a business or other entity tries to use an arbitration procedure such as the DRS or the Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) to attempt to claim a domain name to which it has no entitlement. Often a complainant will rely on trade marks that might not be directly relevant to the case or are found to be unenforceable. In other cases the complainant is found to have brought the complaint in bad faith, for example by concealing material facts from the panellist or expert.
