Firm sued over Le Reve name
Tue, Sep 24, 2002 (11:12 a.m.)
Steve Wynn, developer of the Le Reve resort on the Las Vegas Strip, sued to recover the Internet domain name "lereve.com" from Suffolk, England-based computer programming and consultancy firm Daisy Analysis Ltd.
Wynn Resorts Holdings LLC, which said it acquired trademark rights to the Le Reve name on June 8, 2001, sued Daisy Analysis in U.S. District Court Friday, alleging violations of the Anti-Cybersquatting Consumer Protection Act.
The suit said Daisy Analysis, which registered the "lereve.com" name on Feb. 10, 1999, allegedly did not allow the name to expire as scheduled on Feb. 10, 2002, but instead re-registered the domain name allegedly to capitalize on Wynn's announcement to develop Le Reve at the site of the former Desert Inn.
Daisy Analysis could not be reached for comment on Wynn Resorts' allegations.
