AR-News: (US) Fur flies in animal rights domain dispute

[Animalconcerns]

The US Arbitration Forum has ruled that consumers are able to distinguish
between a fur retailer and an anti-fur protest site. This rather
common-sense ruling clears up a legal scuffle over ownership and content
of www.neimancarcass.com.

Fashion retailer Neiman Marcus had complained that the site was
"confusingly similar" to its name and business, and asked that ownership
be transferred. The judge presiding over the arbitration disagreed, and
ruled that ownership should stay with the Fund for Animals, an anti-fur
protest group.
