DECISION Oath Inc. v. Administrator, Domain / Tailby Limited Claim Number: FA2110001971272 PARTIES Complainant is Oath Inc. (“Complainant”), represented by Nichole Chollet of Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton LLP, Georgia, USA. Respondent is Administrator, Domain / Tailby Limited (“Respondent”), Brazil. REGISTRAR AND DISPUTED DOMAIN NAME The domain name at issue is <yahoocasino.com>, registered with Register.com, Inc. PANEL The undersigned certifies that he has acted independently and impartially and to the best of his knowledge has no known conflict in serving as Panelist in this proceeding. Charles A. Kuechenmeister, Panelist. PROCEDURAL HISTORY Complainant submitted a Complaint to the Forum electronically on October 29, 2021; the Forum received payment on October 29, 2021. On November 3, 2021, Register.com, Inc. confirmed by e-mail to the Forum that the <yahoocasino.com> domain name is registered with Register.com, Inc. and that Respondent is the current registrant of the names. Register.com, Inc. has verified that Respondent is bound by the Register.com, Inc. registration agreement and has thereby agreed to resolve domain disputes brought by third parties in accordance with ICANN’s Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (the “Policy”). On November 5, 2021, the Forum served the Complaint and all Annexes, including a Written Notice of the Complaint setting a deadline of November 26, 2021 by which Respondent could file a Response to the Complaint, via e-mail to all entities and persons listed on Respondent’s registration as technical, administrative, and billing contacts, and to postmaster@yahoocasino.com. Also on November 5, 2021, the Written Notice of the Complaint, notifying Respondent of the e-mail addresses served and the deadline for a Response, was transmitted to Respondent via post and fax to all entities and persons listed on Respondent’s registration as technical, administrative and billing contacts. Having received no formal Response from Respondent, the Forum transmitted to the parties a Notification of Respondent Default. On December 1, 2021, pursuant to Complainant's request to have the dispute decided by a single-member Panel, the Forum appointed Charles A. Kuechenmeister as Panelist. Having reviewed the communications records, the Administrative Panel (the "Panel") finds that the Forum has discharged its responsibility under Paragraph 2(a) of the Rules for Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (the "Rules") "to employ reasonably available means calculated to achieve actual notice to Respondent" through submission of Electronic and Written Notices, as defined in Rule 1 and Rule 2. Therefore, the Panel may issue its decision based on the documents submitted and in accordance with the ICANN Policy, ICANN Rules, the Forum’s Supplemental Rules and any rules and principles of law that the Panel deems applicable, without the benefit of a Response from Respondent. RELIEF SOUGHT Complainant requests that the Domain Name be transferred from Respondent to Complainant. PRELIMINARY ISSUE: RESPONDENT CONSENT TO TRANSFER Shortly after serving the Notice of the Complaint upon Respondent the Forum received the following email message from the email address listed for the Respondent in the records of the registrar: Good day, Kindly note that the domain yahoocasino.com can be transferred to your preferred registrar. Please advise and I will ensure that the domain is transferred successfully. Kind regards Janelle While not meeting the technical requirements for a formal Response provided by Rule 5(c), the Respondent’s message appears to be authentic and unequivocally indicates a willingness on the part of Respondent for the Domain Name to be transferred to Complainant. As required by Policy ¶ 8(a), upon notice of the commencement of this proceeding, the registrar placed a hold on Respondent’s account. Respondent therefore cannot transfer the Domain Name while this proceeding is pending. Under these circumstances, where Respondent does not contest the transfer of the Domain Name but instead consents to a transfer to Complainant, the Panel may forego the traditional UDRP analysis and order an immediate transfer of the Domain Name. Boehringer Ingelheim Int’l GmbH v. Modern Ltd. – Cayman Web Dev., FA 133625 (Forum Jan. 9, 2003) (transferring the domain name registration where the respondent stipulated to the transfer), Malev Hungarian Airlines, Ltd. v. Vertical Axis Inc., FA 212653 (Forum Jan. 13, 2004) (“In this case, the parties have both asked for the domain name to be transferred to the Complainant . . . Since the requests of the parties in this case are identical, the Panel has no scope to do anything other than to recognize the common request, and it has no mandate to make findings of fact or of compliance (or not) with the Policy.”), Disney Enters., Inc. v. Morales, FA 475191 (Forum June 24, 2005) (“[U]nder such circumstances, where Respondent has agreed to comply with Complainant’s request, the Panel felt it to be expedient and judicial to forego the traditional UDRP analysis and order the transfer of the domain names”). The Panel elects to adopt this approach and will order the transfer of the Domain Name without a Policy analysis. DECISION In light of Respondent’s consent to transfer the Domain Name to Complainant, the Panel concludes that that relief shall be GRANTED. Accordingly, it is Ordered that the <yahoocasino.com> Domain Name be TRANSFERRED to Complainant. Charles A.
