Two Guys Named Jimmy Win Domain Names

Two Jimmy’s have won domain names through arbitration decisions, but one of the Jimmy’s is a brand and the other one is dead.

In a decision at World Intellectual Property Forum, upscale shoe seller Jimmy Choo won the domain name JimmyChoo.mobi. Perhaps Jimmy Choo wants to sell you $500 shoes while you’re on your phone, or it is just trying to protect its brand.

In another WIPO decision, the estate of late rocker Jim Morrison won the domain jimmorrison.com. We wrote about this case back in March.

Very interesting document thats been around since 2009. A long read but very informative.

This was an Arbitration case where the Estate of Jim Morrison which included Lou and Pearl Courson requested the domain name of Jim Morrison.com be taken away from a website owner who had the name since 1997. The Estate and the Coursons were represented by the law firm of "Keats McFarland & Wilson, LLP, United States", the same law firm that drew the C&D and served it to the Paris bar.

Jym made a very insightful reply on the Densmore Forum in regards to the Paris Bar yesterday, "Jeff mentioned in his statement about abandoning the trademark, so maybe that's what they're doing with Lezard King establishing a precedent."

Maybe the Doors Camp read this arbitration case that the Estate won two years as something they would give a go themselves. After reading the document it is clear that the name Jim Morrison was not a trademark per say as it was not registered but the arbitration and mediation panel awarded the name to the Estate. According to this document the premise of the case is any website/establishment owner etc., that uses the Doors name in selling products is in direct competition with merchandise the Doors are trying to sell on their sites.

There are thousands of places that sell Doors merchandise not only on line but in stores. What are they going to do have Ebay pull every Doors item for sale off their site?

This is just another example of how greedy the Doors are. As we know they can do what they want but to their own peril because they will loose many, many fans in the process. Fans that could be buying merchandise will boycott this band leaving their revenues to bottom out.
