Two companies, Crisby Studio AB and Prime Loyalty LLC, have refiled a lawsuit against GoDaddy after their initial case was dismissed due to jurisdictional issues. They argue that GoDaddy improperly reclaimed domain names they had won at expired domain auctions. Crisby Studio acquired the domain calor.com, while Prime Loyalty secured butane.com, both previously owned by Calor Gas Ltd based in the UK.
About two months following the auctions, GoDaddy announced that the domains were sold mistakenly and took them back. By that time, both companies had already made substantial investments into their planned websites and established partnerships based on these domains.
Crisby Studio filed the original complaint in August, with Prime Loyalty joining later. In November, the court dismissed the case primarily on jurisdictional grounds. The refiling aims to resolve these jurisdiction issues. However, since the initial lawsuit, GoDaddy has developed a series of defenses that the plaintiffs will need to counter.
