TradeMarks - Domain Names

[ Follow Ups ] [ Post Followup ] [ Trademark Forum ] [ FAQ ]

Posted by Zoltan on November 01, 2003 at 14:23:01:

Company A owns domain name: "sitename.com". "sitename.com" is not a trade mark and "sitename" is not a trade mark.
Company B register "sitename.net" and use it for his own services.

Scenarios:
1. Does Company A have any right to "sitename.net"? As I wrote "sitename" or "sitename.com" is not a trade mark.
2. Company A register trade mark "sitename" or "sitename.com" after a given period (domain name "sitename.net" is already registered). Does Company A have any right to "sitename.net"?

Thank you for your help.
