United States Third Circuit
SHIELDS v. ZUCCARINI, 00-2236
Registering as domain names the misspellings of famous marks for purposes of profiting from consumer confusion violates 15 USC 1125(d)(1)(A)(ii)(I) and (II), and where the defendant acted flagrantly and shows no remorse, the award of attorneys' fees is appropriate.
