Facebook has recently filed a complaint with the National Arbitration Forum,asserting legal rights over FacebookConnect.com domain name. Facebook should expect the National Arbitration Forum order the domain name to be transferred,considering the company owns the "Facebook" mark . The National Arbitration Forum will examine if the domain name is confusingly similar to the trademarked name.Moreover,it will examine if the owner of the domain name has rights over it and if the domain is being used in bad faith.FacebookConnect.com domain name will be passed over to Facebook if it falls under all three of these stipulations.
The case is still pending compliance checks with the National Arbitration Forum .
