Documents filed in the California Northern District Court show that Hal K. Levitte is suing Google Inc.
It’s been reported that Levitte ran an advertising campaign for over 2 months and received 202,528 impressions from parked pages. Apparently he only received 668 clicks and zero conversions.
It’s alleged that Levitte spent $136.11 on advertising on parked domains and error pages, which equates to 15.3% of his $887.67 ad campaign.
So, what do you do when your $800 ad campaign doesn’t work? Well, if you live in America, the chances are that you carry a lawyer with you everywhere you go, so its just a matter of pressing the “on button” and hey presto!
Seriously though, I don’t know all the details; he might have a case! I would have thought the legal fees would be more than $800. Based purely on the financials, this thing doesn’t make sense to me.

A lawsuit filed in the federal court in San Diego claims that Prince Reza Shah hijacked and unlawfully profited from the domain name thecrossingsatcarlsbad.com.
SignOnSanDiego reports “according to a domain registration site, Shah owns more than 280 names, some of which are for sale. Among the domain names are “tiger-woods.mobi” and “trump-golf.mobi.”
Apparently the city held a contest in 2006 to name the golf course and announced the name on Oct. 18, 2006. Shah applied for the trademark on Nov. 30, 2006.

A U.S. District Court judge has ruled in favor of Boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr in the first round of a lawsuit against the operators of floydmayweather.net
The judge issued a temporary restraining order against the “unknown entity”, Atlanta Sports & Entertainment Marketing.
Court documents reveal various allegations, including that Mayweather objects to his name and likeness being used in conjunction with boxing and related services.
It’s been reported that the site allegedly costs $50 to sign up to a membership, where you can view video and other footage of the boxer.
While the website is still online, the content is no longer available - “404 Not Found”. It looks like Mayweather has won round one!
