Anyone ever sued Domain Seller For Breach of Contract.

    This seems to be a very interesting subject. I see many claims in this section that revolves around
    something like "I bought a domain, and never got my domain" for-what-ever reason. Once a domain
    and buyer and seller enter a contract, then both parties have some type of legal obligation to follow
    through, but sometimes sellers (after the binding contract is done) they decide for whatever reason
    to back out of the deal, maybe they sold the domain to someone else, maybe they decided the
    domain was worth more then what they listed it for, or maybe they just changed their minds....

    So I am a bit curious...I am not talking about "I am going to sue you if I do not get my domain..."
    so has anyone actually went through the court process of getting your domain after you paid?

    How did you start your process once you found the seller backed out?

    Tell us about the court process if you had to get the court involved.

    Tell us other details about your domain dispute process.

    What was your outcome? Did you get your domain you paid for? Were you compensated court costs/fees?

    now that is a big dollar dispute over a domain...

    In this case, I think final approval to sale off domains should have come down to the board members, or whom
    ever may own the bigger piece of the company, anyone less should not be allowed to signup to sell off
    company assets, nor should they have the power to do so, as you read on, it says the ceo put a veto on the sale....
    but in the end, that did not seem to matter, and the company got sued over the sale of a domain.
