[CCWG-ACCT] what ICANN can't regulate (was Re: Board comments on the Mission statement)

Normally it is a Registrar that decide on such a registrant transfer 
(I don't think "redelegation" is the term used). And at times, a 
Registry will receive a court order requiring it to transfer a domain 
to a new registrant. I am not aware of ICANN directly taking such 
action on its own volition, although I can imagine it acting on a 
court order, or Contractual Compliance going directly to a Registry 
due to a recalcitrant Registrar.  Can you give examples?
