Jerry Falwell Critic Can Keep Domain Name, Appeals Court Says

Jerry Falwell Critic Can Keep Domain Name, Appeals Court Says: "I want to call your attention to a very important Internet free speech decision, perhaps the most significant of our domain name cases from the past several years. In Lamparello v. Falwell, the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit held today that the use of the domain name www.fallwell.com for a web site devoted to denouncing the views of Rev. Jerry Falwell about homosexuality neither infringes Falwell's trademark in his name nor constitutes 'cybersquatting.'"
