Squire Patton Boggs has lost its bid to claim the domain name squirepattonboggs.net, which is registered to a Chinese company.

A single-member panel at the ICANN-accredited Asian Domain Name Dispute Resolution Center (ADNDRC) has ruled that the law firm is not entitled to the domain, and that China-based Qinhuangdao Hongshun Technology Development Co. Ltd. is its rightful owner. In a decision issued on Aug. 31 Xue Hong , a Beijing-based domain name legal scholar appointed by the ADNDRC, also ruled that Squire Patton Boggs’ claim of prior use lacked sufficient evidence.
