i have a domain of a singers name, his lawyer has contacted me and said if i don't hand it over they will get ICANN to take the domain from me. however since i have had this domain registered for 4 years. i believe he has only registered his name as a trademark some time in the past 2 years. does this mean that since i had the name before he registered his, they can't take the name from me? is there a database online or some way i can find out for sure when it was registered. thanks
