.fi: Dispute Resolution in the .fi Registry – Sanna Sahlman, .fi
A brief introduction to the Finnish domain name dispute resolution. FICORA (.fi registry) can revoke domain names which have been registered against the Domain Name Act. Domain names are, in principle, free to be chosen, but the domain name registrant is responsible for the lawfulness of its registration. FICORA can afterwards intervene in a unlawful registration of a domain name by, for example, revoking the domain name. Claims are typically arisen/demanded by trademark or trade name holders. FICORA's own legal counsels handle approx. 100 dispute cases during each year. The presentation will cover legal principles, procedure, some practical examples and statistics.
