Case Number: D2024-4861
Complainant: Solar Hero GmbH
Represented by: Boehmert & Boehmert
Solar Hero, GmbH, of Germany, has been found guilty of Reverse Domain Name Hijacking in connection with its use of the UDRP process to impel a transfer of the domain hive-pt.com. The company, via counsel, argued its trademark, for the mark “tradinghive” gave it rights to the domain, because it incorporated the word “hive”.
The sole panelist reviewing the case, Andrew D.S. Lothian, utterly rejected that argument, and he handed up the RDNH ruling against Solar Hero on January 17, 2025.
