[ale] OT: BIZ Registration Intellectual Property Claim Dispute

[Benjamin Scherrey]

You dispute it by showing that it doesn't have merit and that your usage isn't in conflict with any rights that the 
claimant actually posseses. It might help if you let us know what the domain is, who the claimant is, and what 
your usage if for. Does the claimant have a trademark on the term? Does your usage have the ability to 
confuse users into thinking they may be contacting the claimant by visiting your site?

	good luck,
