Trademarks & Domain Name Drop Catching
Sep 7th
Domain name drop catching services like Pool.com and SnapNames.com take orders from customers for really any expired domain name they can obtain.

UDRP Panelists Still Can’t Agree on Decisions
Sep 7th
Drug company loses dispute, but panelists disagree over key point.
A recent UDRP brought by drug giant Sanofi-aventis is interesting on a couple counts.
First, the company lost the case over the domain name ferrlecit.com. The respondent is a former licensee of Sanofi-aventis. It registered the domain name while it was a licensee.

(Another example of lawyers overlooking an important part of intellectual property.) The respondent kept it, and now Sanofi is arguing it is being held in bad faith.
