Wang v. Societe Du Figaro S.A. et al, No. 1:2015cv09376 - Document 46 (S.D.N.Y. 2018)

Court Description: OPINION & ORDER adopting 41 Report and Recommendation. For the foregoing reasons, the Court adopts Judge Catt's Report and Recommendation in substantial part and thereby denies Wang's claims for damages under 15 U.S.C. §§ 111 4(2)(D)(iv) and 1125(d)(1). As to the Report's recommendation that the Court deny injunctive relief and issue a limited declaratory judgment, while the Court agrees with the Report's reasoning and finds no error, plain or otherwise, the Court nevertheless has determined independently that it now lacks jurisdiction to award (or deny) such relief. Thus, as to Wang's claim for reverse domain name hijacking under 15 U.S.C. § 1114(2)(D)(v), the Court dismisses-without prejudice-for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. The Clerk of Court is respectfully directed to close this case. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Paul A. Engelmayer on 6/26/2018) (anc)
