Pursuant to ICANN’s Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy, in order to take a domain away from a registrant via arbitration, the Complainant must prove that: (1) the domain name registered by Respondent is identical or confusingly similar to a trademark or service mark in which Complainant has rights; and (2) Respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the domain name; and (3) the domain name has been registered and is being used in bad faith. In this case, the panel found that while LadyGaga.org and Lady Gara are certainly identical or confusingly similar, Lady Gaga has failed to show that the fan had no legitimate interests in the domain.
