History

Trademark Complaint

On 21 December 2005, Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, Long Island City, New York, lodged a complaint against MetArt owner HLP General Partners Inc with the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) Arbitration and Mediation Center claiming that three domain names, including met-art.com, were too similar to its numerous registered Met Art trademarks. METLIFE was also concerned that “sexually explicit material” on the MetArt websites would tarnish METLIFE's reputation. In 2006, the complaint was dismissed by the WIPO because it “does not meet the standard for establishing bad-faith registration and use of the Domain Names under a Policy designed to provide quick relief against egregious cases of cybersquatting”.[7]
