<P>Eric and all,</P>
<P> </P>
<P> I dislike that it is likely that ICM will prevail here for many long standing and far reaching</P>
<P>reasons which most of you can surmise without me elaborating further. What's far more important</P>
<P>is that FWIW seems to me that this case has been a strong additional motivator for ICANN's Bod</P>
<P>and Staff seeking to become accountable to know one vis a vis the recent JPA decision for fear</P>
<P>of further legal actions in respect to the introduction of new gTLD's.<BR><BR><BR></P>

<DIV>And ICM thinks they are going to prevail. Yikes!! When the parties leading expert resorts to preaching and pontithicating and repeatedly using the word "should" and does not render any credentials regarding arbitration, judicial mediation or experience in conflict resolution that would signal to most a very weak case. But most important is the total lack of presentation regarding arbitrary and capricious denial. In fact it would appear ICM supplied the IRP with good reason for ICANN's decision.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I am not pleased at all with the conduct of either party -- but I know a weak legal and negotiating hand when I see it. Some might argue that the reason ICANN can do what they do, is that no one seems really motivated to put together a good legal team against them. It would appear that the same puffer fish that hold the IP bar together had a hand in this failure.<BR>--- On <B>Wed, 10/14/09, Danny Younger <I><dannyyounger@yahoo.com></I></B> wrote:<BR></DIV>
