I want to purchase a domain: curion.com   

It is unavailable because it is held by godaddy (as shown on whois.net)   

Question is, Can a web hosting company hoard a domain name to itself. Is it even allowed? The domain doesnt function either.   

How do I legally pursue this matter? What is the law?
