The club was founded in 1924 and plays in the French football Ligue 1. \r\n\r\nComplainant is the owner of several trademarks, including the international trademark ASM MONACO, registered with WIPO on May 4, 1995 with registration number 635731, and the European Community trademark AS MONACO FC, registered with the OHIM on April 26, 2006 with registration number 004410312. \r\n\r\nThe disputed domain name <asmonaco.com> displays information related to Complainant and redirects to the official website of Complainant. The disputed domain name was registered on May 25, 1998.  \r\n",

    "no_response_filed": "NO ADMINISTRATIVELY COMPLIANT RESPONSE HAS BEEN FILED.\r\n\r\nPARTIES' CONTENTIONS:\r\n\r\nCOMPLAINANT:\r\n\r\nAccording to Complainant the disputed domain name is confusingly similar to Complainant's trademark.\r\n\r\nAccording to Complainant, Respondent has no rights or legitimate interest in the disputed domain name as the website under the disputed domain name is being used to redirect users to the website of Complainant while Respondent is not related in any way with the business of Complainant. \r\n\r\nAccording to Complainant  the disputed domain name is registered in bad faith. Given the distinctiveness of Complainant's trademark and its reputation, it is reasonable to infer that Respondent has registered the disputed domain name with full knowledge of Complainant's trademarks. The disputed domain name corresponds directly to Complainant's well-known mark, and circumstances indicate that Respondent was aware of that mark since Respondent redirects the disputed domain name to Complainant's website. Such use constitutes bad faith as it deprives Complainant of control of the domain name, and the domain name could be used by the Respondent to profit illegitimately from Complainant's mark. According to Complainant the disputed domain name could be used by Respondent to profit illegitimately from Complainant's mark as the sole purpose for its registration was and is to trick users into believing that they have arrived at a site which is owned by or associated with a reputable company i.e. Complainant. \r\n\r\n\r\nRESPONDENT:\r\n\r\nRespondent did not file a response.",
