Lambo.com domain owner appeals court loss to Automobili Lamborghini - Domain Name Wire | Domain Name News

Lambo.com registrant plans to continue fighting.

The registrant of the domain name lambo.com plans to appeal a lawsuit over the domain name.

Lamborghini won a dispute it filed under the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) for the domain name in 2022. The owner of the domain filed a lawsuit to stay the decision.

The carmaker filed a motion for summary judgment in that suit, and the judge granted that motion in a decision last month. The judge ordered the domain transferred to the carmaker.

Richard Blair, who acquired the domain for $10,000 in 2018, had defended his registration of the domain by arguing that he was known as "Lambo" and used that name as a username on the domain forum NamePros. But the court noted that he didn't adopt that nickname until after acquiring the domain:

Last week, Blair filed a notice of appeal.

The domain currently resolves to a landing page offering the domain for sale for $75 million.
