Online poker room, casino and sportbook, BodogLife.com recently announced that it has regained control of its original domain name, Bodog.com after losing the domain in 2007 after a patent infringement lawsuit filed by 1st Technology, LLC.  After losing its original domain name, Bodog Poker moved its operations to the alternate domain newbodog.com, which ultimately led to bodoglife.com.

Alwyn Morris, head of the Morris Mohawk Gaming Group, said the company is looking forward to move the business to its original domain after the settlement. According to a press release distributed by Morris Mohawk Gaming Group, which markets Bodog’s brand in North America, the company reached an agreement with 1st Technology LLC on Monday, and ended all lawsuits between the two parties.

“We are pleased to have worked constructively with 1st Technology and its principals to bring an end to this protracted dispute. This resolution will provide certainty and will also allow us to continue to enhance our technology base for online gaming in order to provide our users with unfettered access to the best technology.” said Alwyn Morris, Chief Executive for the Morris Mohawk Gaming Group, in a press release.

“While the Morris Mohawk Gaming Group was not the judgment debtor, the MMGG is the exclusive licensee of the “Bodog” brand within the region and, as such, activities that impact the brand necessarily impact our businesses. We are pleased to have worked constructively with 1st Technology and its principals to bring an end to this protracted dispute. This resolution will provide certainty and will also allow us to continue to enhance our technology base for online gaming in order to provide our users with unfettered access to the best technology.” added Morris.
