Lester Schweiss “punted” rather than exercised “admirable restraint” (in the words of Ron Coleman "likelihoodofconfusion.com" commenting your blog essay). However, whether panelists get the scope of the UDRP right – what is within and what is not – is a tricky question. Although not expressly referring to Rule 18(b) of the Policy in the Family Watchdog decision – the Panel’s discretion to suspend or terminate the administrative proceedings – the situation is similar to a pending lawsuit and, in such circumstances, a UDRP complaint is appropriately dismissed. It will be interesting to read the outcome of the Family Watchdog contest because, if the complainant, respondent before the TTAB prevails, he may want to try again with a UDRP complaint. If the petitioner prevails, the case is closed.gmlevinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15884813245327868589noreply@blogger.com
