    "factual_background": "The Complainant is a multinational corporation based in France, known for its bus-stop advertising systems, billboards, public bicycle rental systems, and street furniture. It is the largest outdoor advertising corporation in the world.\r\n\r\nThe Complainant provides information on its goods and services online under numerous domain names, such as <jcdecaux.com> (registered since 1997).\r\n\r\nThe disputed domain name was registered on October 22, 2018 and is being used in connection with a standard placeholder website of the Respondent's registrar.",
    "other_legal_proceedings": "The Panel is not aware of any other legal proceedings which are pending or decided and which relate to the disputed domain name.\r\n",
    "no_response_filed": "PARTIES' CONTENTIONS:\r\n\r\nCOMPLAINANT:\r\n\r\nThe Complainant contends that the disputed domain name is confusingly similar to the Trademarks.\r\n\r\nFurthermore, the Complainant contends that the Respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in the disputed domain name. In this regard, the Complainant states that the Respondent is not commonly known by the disputed domain name, is not affiliated with nor authorized by the Complainant in any way, that the Complainant does not carry out any activity for, nor has any business with the Respondent, and that neither license nor authorization has been granted to the Respondent to make any use of the Trademark or apply for registration of the disputed domain name by the Complainant.\r\n\r\nFinally, the Complainant contends that the disputed domain name was registered and is being used in bad faith. It contends that the Respondent must have been aware of the Complainant and its well-known Trademarks at the time of registration of the disputed domain name and that the Respondent's non-use of the disputed domain name is an evidence of bad faith.\r\n\r\nRESPONDENT:\r\n\r\nThe Respondent filed a Response on November 1, 2018.\r\n\r\nThe Respondent only states that the disputed domain name was selected in the memory of a deceased friend, James Connor Decaux and that it is intended for non-commercial use.\r\n\r\nFurthermore, the Respondent contends that he was unaware that the Complainant was any trademarked company. However, he also states that he would prefer to be compensated for the costs of such domain registration in the event of losing the disputed domain name.",
