Copies of the complaint were submitted electronically to the Registrar and to respondent, who replied to the complaint on November 3, 2000. Factual background 4.1. These signs have been listed on page five of the complaint. 5.2.- Respondent 5.2.1. The registration agreement is in the English language.
Complainant is a Spanish entity and respondent appears to be a German national.
There is no equitable basis for deeming that the proceedings should take place in German when complainant is opposed. Even though Mr. Zotzmann has a temporary residence in the Balearic Islands, there is nothing in the record to suggest that he is conversant in Spanish, and hence it is also deemed inappropriate for the panel to issue its decision in that language. Therefore, pursuant to the basic precepts laid down in Rule 11 of the Uniform Policy, it is appropriate to take as the language of the proceedings the language in which the domain name registration agreement has been drawn up, in which complainant duly submitted the complaint. Accordingly, the decision is hereby issued in that same language. S.A. Industrial property rights in Spain are governed by the Trademark Act, Law No.
