Neuron SA of Paris found Guilty Of Reverse Domain Name Hijacking

Case Number: D2015-0610

Complainant: Monsieur Luc de Chammard de Nanterre, France et la société Neurones SA, de Paris, France

WIPO Domain Name Decision: D2015-0610

Luc Chammard of Nanterre, France, and the company Neuron SA of Paris, France, represented by Mr. Cohen, Lawyer, France was just found guilty of Reverse Domain Name Hijacking (RDNH)on the domain name Neurones.com in a decision handed down by a three member WIPO UDRP panel

The domain holder was represented by UDRP POLICE DBS, United Kingdom

The three member panel consisted of Philippe Gilliéron, Richard G. Lyons and Christiane Feral-Schuhl.

It should be noted that the decision was published in French and I used Google translate:

The Complainant has a registered trademark on the term NEURONES since July 11, 2008 the domain name neurones.com was registered on December 25th 1996. The domain holder registered the domain in connection with a business he operated for many years so the panel found not only was the domain not registered in bad faith but it was registered and used in good faith.

The panel also called out the Complainants for waiting 8 years after the domain was registered to even contact the domain owner:

“”Finally, the Panel notes that the disputed domain name was registered in 1996 and that, subject to a first contact initiated eight years later by the Applicants in 2004, no contact has occurred between the parties.
