'Unbroken Chain of Possession' in Domain Name Disputes (skill.com)

In this video, I discuss a UDRP decision in which the disputed domain name was registered 26 years before the complainant obtained a trademark registration. While that timeline usually makes it impossible to establish "bad faith," this case was more complicated because the registrant of the domain name changed hands, so the panel discussed whether it was subject to "an unbroken chain of possession."
