Financial Securities Law
Stay Compliant with Federal and State Securities Regulations! Register your Securities or Qualify for an Exemption from Registration.
As you are most likely aware, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regulates securities, but what is a security? The definition of a “security” was established in the Supreme Court case SEC v. W. J. Howey Co., a security is defined using a four part test: (1) the investment of money (2) in a common enterprise (3) with expectation of profits (4) solely from the efforts of others.

As long as you pay your registration fee each year you can use the domain name as you wish, provided you are not breaking the law or infringing on another’s rights. However, using a domain name in commerce to the point that it can receive federal trademark registration is not so easy, and in some cases not possible.
