[atlarge-discuss] Sex.com Domain Name case saga continues. Yet another twist!

[Jeff Williams <jwkckid1@ix.netcom.com>]

All former DNSO GA members or other interested Parties,

  The Sex.Com case yet again takes another twist.

  See:  http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/05/09/1213236
Very interesting!

 "[0]fwc writes "This has to be the story which will never end. Back in
1996, Steven Cohen "stole" sex.com from its original owner (Gary Kremen)

by forging a letter to Network Solutions asking for the domain to be
transferred to him. Subsequently Kremen sued to get the domain name
returned. Through what seemed to be a neverending parade of lawsuits and

judgements (Documented on slashdot [1]here, [2]here, [3]here and
[4]here,
and also in [5]several other places), Kremen finally got his domain back

and Cohen was ordered to pay $65 million in damages. In the latest
twist,
Cohen [6]is asking the US Supreme Court to overturn the verdict of the
lower courts by claiming that he owned the [7]sex.com trademark prior to

Kremen registering the domain. This should prove interesting since it
looks like the filing at the USPTO occured two years after the domain
was
originally registered."
