Toronto-Dominion Bank wins TDWaterHouse.XXX Domain Name in Arbitration

 

The Toronto-Dominion Bank appears to have emerged victourius from a dispute regarding the domain TDWaterHouse.xxx .

 

The Toronto-Dominion Bank filed a complaint with the National Arbitration Forum on April 9, 2013 ,asserting legal rights over the disputed domain name TDWaterHouse.xxx .

The company owns a trademark registration for “TD Waterhouse” and is commonly known as TD for more than 100 years.Therefore,it is more than obvious that the disputed domain name is confusingly similar to its trademark .

The Toronto-Dominion Bank has also managed to demonstrate the the respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the domain and that the domain has been registered and is being used in bad faith .

Having established all three elements ,the Panel ordered the disputed domain name to be transferred from the respondent to the complainant.
