[gnso-rpm-wg] Correction to UDRP data on 2-June TM Claims Sub-Team call

[Beckham, Brian]

George, 

Without looking at the links you provide, you will see that a search on WIPO's database for "TMCH" shows 33 hits:  
http://www.wipo.int/amc/en/domains/search/fulltext_decisions.jsp?q=tmch.

A search for "Trademark Clearinghouse" shows 72 hits:
http://www.wipo.int/amc/en/domains/search/fulltext_decisions.jsp?tab=1&q=%22Trademark+Clearinghouse%22&rows=20.

These results are against the almost 1,200 UDRP cases involving new gTLDs that have been filed at WIPO.  (Even the 100 and 298 figures you cite below, which are presumably across all providers?)

In my book, these statistics (0.0275 and 0.06 percent respectively) qualify as "very few".

Thanks.

Hello,

What precisely is "very few"? A quick search of decisions at UDRPSearch.com:

http://www.udrpsearch.com/search?query=tmch&search=text&results=100&start=1

shows 100 matches for the term "TMCH" and 298 matches for "Clearinghouse"

http://www.udrpsearch.com/search?query=clearinghouse&search=text&results=100&start=1

(there would be some overlap between those 2 sets of results, obviously)

While a subset of the matches are for URS cases, there still appear to be more than just a "very few" cases. Furthermore, the above search results might understate the total, given that it only searches *decisions*, and does not have access to the raw complaints (i.e. a complainant might mention the TMCH, but that aspect might not be mentioned by the panel in its decision).

Sincerely,

George Kirikos
