On the 2nd Nov 2005 I registered a domain with good intention to develop it, nothing more. It has been redirected to a another site of mine which is in use daily by many visitors for the past year and a bit.
Recently I have decided I want to sell it as I don't have time to develop it how I wanted to so I had a look on "uspto.gov" and i have noticed the name is Trademarked but the TM was filed on the 28th Nov 2005, nearly a month after my registration.
My question to you is, do I have a right to do what I want with the domain or should I do the right thing and hand over the domain to company?
Also, if I were to sell the domain would the original date of the 2nd Nov still be applicable to the new owner or will they now be within a trademark infringement?
Thanks for you help.
Regards
edit: ok doing a bit more reading it looks as if I may not be able to sell iit to someone else, but perhaps I could sell it to the company? Any thoughts?
