Hershey’s Files UDRP On 16 Year Old ChocolateWorld.com; 17 Year Old NewBody.com Also Hit

Posted on the 16 April 2014 by Worldwide @thedomains

A couple of interesting UDRP filings today

Hershey’s filed a UDRP on the domain name ChocolateWorld.com

The domain name was registered in back in 1997 however it is going to a blank page and according to Screenshots.com the domain may never have resolved to any type of site or page, not even a parked page.

Hershey does have a trademark on the term Chocolate World going back to 2005 as well as HERSHEY’S CHOCOLATE WORLD which was registered in 2011/2012

Another UDRP filed today is against another domain consisting of a seemly generic term, NewBody.com

NewBody.com has an original registration date older than ChocolateWorld.com or 1996

The complainant in the NewBody.com case is Cocolabel AB which filed for a US trademark on the term New Body in 2012 and to which opposition was filed to in 2013.

The domain appears to have sold or been transferred to a new owner in late 2013 or early 2014

NewBody.com currently goes to a parked page
