A German doctor in the medical cannabis field has been found guilty of Reverse Domain Name Hijacking in connection with his use of the UDRP process to force the transfer of the domain canngo.express. The physician filing the complaint, Dr. Can Ansay, represented himself. He argued the domain, which was registered in March of 2024, incorporates the mark, “canngo”, for which he acquired a trademark in October 2024. The domain is owned by a private equity firm invested in the medical cannabis space.
A three-member panel of the European Arbitration Center for Internet Disputes, composed of members Assen Alexiev, Petr Hostaš and Stephanie Hartung, handed up a ruling of Reverse Domain Name Hijacking against Dr. Ansay on January 13, 2025.
