The "first come, first serve" principle applies when allocating .se and .nu domain names – the first party to apply for an available domain name will be given it with no prior testing. If you believe that someone else has registered a .se or a .nu domain to which you are entitled, you can appeal the allocation of the domain name retroactively.
