Habitual Cybersquatter under the UDRP: Caribbean Online International Ltd.

Not only can multiple UDRP decisions against a particular domain name registrant (respondent) evidence domain warehousing, or the practice of registering multiple domain names incorporating the valuable trademarks of others, but such decisions can be used as evidence of bad faith in other UDRP proceedings or in ACPA litigation.  It is critical to know who the registrant is, what other domains it owns or have owned, and how to best approach your particular domain name dispute. 

Since 2006, Carribean Online International Ltd. has been the named respondent in 28 UDRP domain name disputes handled by either NAF or WIPO.  Caribbean Online International Ltd. has been ruled against as a cybersquatter in 27 of those, including:
