Domain calculation
The Independent Media Group (IM) unsuccessfully demands from cybersquatter Phillip Gross 120 thousand rubles prescribed for payment by a court decision. In order to still get this money, IM is going to foreclose on the domain ownership of Gross.
According to Vedomosti , Gross and the publishing house in 2003 concluded an agreement under which the IM group entered into 10-year rights to the domain yes.ru. After some time, the agreement was terminated, but the prepaid payment received from IM remained with the domain owner. After the trial, the court ordered Gross to return to the publisher about 120 thousand rubles, but, as was said, this has not happened so far.
In the collection agency "Center YUSB" consider : if the voluntary payment of debt does not happen, a kind of precedent will soon appear when the penalty will be imposed on such a specific intangible asset as a domain name. The application procedure itself is carried out through the bailiff service, which organizes an auction for the sale of addresses. The proceeds go to repay debt.

“120 thousand rubles is not such a big amount for a cybersquatter who has registered more than 50 domains with his brother (Pavel Gross),” say representatives of the YUSB Center. Some names, they said, were bought out for amounts ten times the size of the debt. Thus, the acquisition of the domain photo.ru for $ 100 thousand from Artemy Lebedev became the most famous deal of Grossov ... According to Vedomosti, the domain business of the Gross brothers includes approximately 5,000 names.
Lawyers point out that by law cancellation is possible - but not the sale of a domain. In their opinion, the decision to collect the name on account of the debt would be revolutionary. In this case, the transfer of the right to control the domain is still possible. According to the representative of the Ru-Center Andrei Vorobyov, the registrar cancels the previous registration if he receives a writ of execution with the court’s decision to transfer the domain ownership and management rights to another person.
