MOSCOW, November 27 - RAPSI. The Moscow Commercial Court upheld Google Inc.'s lawsuit against Weblink Ltd concerning the defendant's use of the googl.ru and gugl.ru domains, the court told the Russian Legal Information Agency (RAPSI/rapsinews.com).

The court upheld the company's claims on the protection of Google Inc.'s exclusive rights to the Google trademark and prohibited the defendant from using the similar googl.ru and gugl.ru in its domains.

The court suspended the proceedings on July 27 and ordered the matter to be examined by an expert commission, which should consist of two or more experts selected by both parties, so as to establish whether the domains are similar to the plaintiff's trademark.

The plaintiff's representative said at the hearing on Monday that the company sides with the experts, who declared that the names were confusingly similar. The defendant's representative said the conclusion of one of the experts should not be taken into account as there were legal violations in the way it was put together.

At an earlier date, the court involved the website registrar Garant Park Telecom as a third party.

Google had secured an interim relief from the court that prohibited Weblink from assigning the googl.ru and gugl.ru administration rights to a third party.

The world's largest Internet company, Google increased its net profit in 2011 by 15 percent year on year to $9.74 billion.
