#436 - brooksshoes.ca - TRANSFER GRANTED

The Complainant owns the BROOKS family of trademarks, registered for use in association with footwear amongst other goods. The Registrant did not respond. The Registrant’s website links to a website selling goods bearing the BROOKS trademarks, without the Complainant’s permission. 

The Panel found that the Domain Name was registered in bad faith because the website was clearly set up to divert payments away from the Complainant and using the Complainant’s marks without permission.
