Re: [ga-udrp] the UDRP
No protection intended. Just no permission to go
into detail. I don't usually post people's names attached to something without
that and especially where they may be pending legal issues.

That would be registrars can decide what ever they want.
I cannot figure who you protect by not publishing the full name. There
is only one reasonable explanation for this type of situation.

Do we have a UDRP or not. Here is an
interesting twist and another example of "UNIFORM". Someone registered a
domain name that had expired and dropped. SanpNames.com provides a
monitoring service and got the name for their client. The domain name was as
similar to their client's last name that he could see coming available. The
client played by the rules. The word the domain represents is
generic. After getting the
name, within two weeks a lawyer called on and threatened the new registrant
with a UDRP action. The lawyer then called on and emailed lots of other
companies with similar names and let them know about the situation for some
reason. Some of them emailed the new registrant to ask why a lawyer was also
contacting them. The lawyer
also threatened Tucows. Even though it is a generic word it seems there are
9 TMs in various classes on the name. The lawyer represented the company
that let the domain name expire who is one of the TM Holders. By the way.
They got the domain in a UDRP action in the first place then still failed to
properly protect the domain by letting it expire. Now this letter comes from Tucows to the new
registrant.
The above mentioned domain name was
accidentally deleted due to an
administrative error. This deletion
allowed the name to become available
for public registration, at which
point you registered the name. As the
name should not have been
available for registration, we will be returning
the name to the
original Registrant, in accordance with section 21 of the
Registration
Agreement. You will, of course receive a full refund for the
registration amount.
If you have any questions or concerns, or would like to discuss this
matter
further, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Registries can just decide cases on their own.
