Hugo Boss has filed a complaint with the WIPO Arbitration and Mediation Center,asserting legal rights over six Hugo Boss-related domain names.
The six disputed domain names are : cheaphugoboss.com,hugo-boss-outlet.net,hugo-boss-outlet.org,hugobossoutlet.org,hugoboss-store.net and hugoboss-store.org .
Hugo Boss should expect the WIPO Arbitration and Mediation Center order the domain names to be transferred,considering the company owns the "Hugo Boss" mark .
The WIPO Arbitration and Mediation Center will examine if the domain names are confusingly similar to the trademarked name.Moreover,it will examine if the owner of the disputed domain names has rights over it and if the domains are being used in bad faith.The domain names will be passed over to Hugo Boss if it falls under all three of these stipulations.
The case is still pending compliance checks with the WIPO Arbitration and Mediation Center .
