[governance] U.S. Court Quashes Attempts to Attach ccTLDs: Federal Judge Agrees with ICANN

[Suresh Ramasubramanian]

Almost every country in the world has long arm legislation and ex parte powers

The Delhi high Court for example issued ex parte orders against some 
Dutchmen who were tracking an international pill spam operation about a 
decade back, as they had named an indian pharma firm as the supplier of 
those drugs, and the firm sued.

The criminals in the spam operation were prosecuted in jurisdictions as 
diverse as new Zealand, the usa and the Netherlands.
