McAfee Opposes Motion to Add Musarubra to Cybersquatting Complaint

MusarubraDefendant McAfee opposes plaintiff James Linlor’s motion to add Musarubra as a co-defendant in his allegations that McAfee cybersquatted on the cyberguard.com domain name, said its opposition Thursday (docket 5:23-cv-00385) in U.S. District Court for Northern California in San Jose. Linlor attempted to add Musarubra to the case after McAfee disclosed it sold the domain to Musarubra in 2021, said its opposition. McAfee has an outstanding motion to dismiss Linlor’s amended complaint “that should conclude this case” and render his motion to add Musarubra moot, it said. Linlor’s request to add another party “would do nothing to change the course of events,” because Linlor has no “cognizable claim” under the Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act, it said.
