Indian tribe Domain Name Issue
MIAMI, FL : A Florida Indian tribe is considering a lawsuit against a former bodyguard who has staked claims to Web domain names.
Steve Thiele has registered www.miccosukeetribeofindians.com and www.miccosukeetribeofindiansofflorida.com.
Thiele said he wants $500,000 from the tribe, while the Miccosukee have offered him amounts that started at $5,000 and have hit $100,000 so far.
According to a lawyer specializing in domain disputes, said Thiele’s chances in court are poor because the tribal name is trademarked.
