2011 second Lawsuit over the Pagesjaunes.com Internet Domain Years go by but Pages Jaunes SA in Sevres is never able to get hold of the famous internet domain pagesjaunes.com ... their lawsuit, in activity for over 11 year continues. It is probably the longes lawsuit over an internet domain in the history of the internet. A new Wipo case has been filed in july 2011
The Case N°D 2011-1203 was decided October 5 2011 by 3 panelists Francois Dessemontet from Switzerland, Nathalie Dreyfus from France and Jonathan Turner from the UK. The domain pagesjaunes.com is again defended by the famous trademark lawyer Andre Bertrand. It is probably the first time that Wipo had to decide a second time over the same domain name, still owned by the same person, Jean Noel Frydman, the original owner, back from the very early years of the Internet. For the second time Wipo has decided Mr Frydman can keep the domain. A big decision in regards to the Directory market of tomorrow.
