The suit says Marchex has been using a domain name called Aceplay.com, purporting to offer information about the Stratosphere and three other American Casino properties; the two Arizona Charlie’s in Las Vegas 
and the Aquarius in Laughlin…The suit also claims the website at issue infringed on American Casino’s “ace PLAY†loyalty club trademark.
“…U.S. District Court Judge Gloria Navarro issued a temporary restraining order requiring a domain name registrar to immediately remove or disable the aceplay.com domain name, place it on “hold and lock†and transfer it to the control of the court…”
According to the LasvVegasSun.com, the owner of the Stratosphere hotel-casino in Las Vegas has filed suit against Marchex (MCHX) for alleged trademark infringement over the domain name AcePlay.com. American Casino claims in its suit that Marchex Sales Inc. has been involved in trademark infringement and ‘’cybersquatting,’’ which involves the registration of a website domain name that is similar to another party’s trademarked-name. Wednesday’s lawsuit says the site also includes links to online gaming sites and that Marchex is believed to generate “click-through†revenue from the online casinos.
American Casino “owns the exclusive right to use its ace PLAY trademark in connection with gaming servicesâ€
