Estate fights for JamesBrown.com — James Brown

Late singer’s estate files complaint over domain name JamesBrown.com.

The estate of the late “Godfather of Soul” James Brown has filed an arbitration case with National Arbitration Forum over the domain name JamesBrown.com.

The domain name is registered to Lac Management, Inc., which manages “RJ & The James Brown Band”, the group that performed with Brown until his death in 2006.

When contacted for comment regarding the case, Lac Management stated it was contacted by the estate of James Brown and Lac offered to sell the domain name to the estate. The estate decided instead to file the arbitration request under the uniform domain name dispute resolution policy (UDRP).
