The story behind one man’s expensive battle to keep his domain name.
Jeffrey Black registered IMI.com in 1994.

On today’s show, Black’s attorney Mike Rodenbaugh walks us through exactly what happened: why Black registered the domain, how this case proceeded all the way to a jury trial, and what happened next.
