    "factual_background": "FACTS ASSERTED BY THE COMPLAINANT AND NOT CONTESTED BY THE RESPONDENT:\r\n\r\nThe Complainant, which was founded in 1871, is a French industrial business trading internationally. It manufactures and offers products for power management, automation, and related solutions. The Complainant's corporate website can be found at www.schneider-electric.com.\r\n\r\nThe Complainant is featured on the NYSE Euronext, and the French CAC 40 stock market index. In 2012, the Complainant achieved a turnover of € 24 billion.\r\n\r\nThe Complainant owns various trade marks which include the words SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC. The Complainant is also the owner of many Internet domain names which include the words SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC.\r\n\r\nThe disputed domain name SCHNEIDER-ELETRIC.COM  (the 'Domain Name') was registered on 11 December 2005. \r\n\r\nThe Complainant asserts that the Domain Name is confusingly similar to its various trade marks for SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC. \r\n\r\nThe Complainant filed its complaint in relation to the Domain Name with the Czech Arbitration Court on 14 March 2014.\r\n\r\nThe Respondent failed to submit a Response within the time frame required in this Complaint, or at all, and a Notification of Respondent’s Default was therefore issued by the Czech Arbitration Court on 10 April 2014.\r\n\r\nHaving received a Statement of Acceptance and Declaration of Impartiality, the Czech Arbitration Court appointed Steve Palmer, of Palmer Biggs Legal - Solicitors, as the Panel in these UDRP proceedings. \r\n",

    "no_response_filed": "NO ADMINISTRATIVELY COMPLIANT RESPONSE HAS BEEN FILED.\r\n\r\nPARTIES' CONTENTIONS:\r\n\r\nCOMPLAINANT:\r\n\r\nThe Complainant asserts that the Domain Name is confusingly similar to its well known and distinctive trade mark SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC. Further, as the Domain Name only omits the letter \"C\" from the second word of the Complainant's trade mark, it is a clear case of \"typosquatting\", a practice by which “a registrant deliberately introduces slight deviations into famous marks” for commercial gain.\r\n\r\nNumerous panels have confirmed that the use of misspellings in domain names indicates bad faith on the part of the registrant. Using misspellings of domain names in order to trick individuals into viewing unrelated advertisements or websites is evidence of bad faith use of a domain name. Typosquatting is profitable, because a website with a domain name consisting of a common misspelling of a famous trade mark generates Internet traffic and, therefore, possible advertising revenue.\r\n\r\nThe wording SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC is only known in relation to the Complainant. It has no meaning whatsoever in English or in any other language. A Google search on the wording SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC displays various results, all related to the Complainant.\r\n\r\nThe Respondent does not have any rights or legitimate interest in the Domain Name.The Respondent is not affiliated with or authorised by the Complainant in any way. The Respondent has no right or legitimate interest in the Domain Name and is not related in any way to the Complainant's business.\r\n\r\nThe Complainant concludes that the Respondent has registered and is using the Domain Name in bad faith.\r\n\r\nThe Complainant requests the transfer of the Domain Name.",
