<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US">Thanks Robin and Léon for the drafts. For some reason, I am unable to access the google drive docs, so I am sending my comments (as a representative of the Brazilian government) through this email:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US">-> In the "CCWGLegalquestions" document, under section "Issues related with jurisdictional matters", I suggest the addition of the following question:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US">"Considering that ICANN's current jurisdiction may eventually impose restrictions with regards to some of the mechanisms addressed in the preceding questions (i.e. dismissal of individual Board members, IRP overthrowing
Board decisions, requirements for the appeals panel, membership structure), do these same restrictions also potentially apply in a scenario where ICANN has an international status, i.e. it is not subject to the legislation of a single country?"<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US">-> Under the same section, I would remove question 'c', as the term 'best legal conditions' seems very vague and could potentially lead to unintentionally biased answers.

<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US">I am not sure if Robin's document is intended to replace the "CCWGLegalquestions" file. If that is the case, I would rephrase the fifth question under section "Specific Questions Related to Goals and Concerns" in the
following way:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US">-> Which legal jurisdiction <b><u><span style="color:red">(including the possibility of international jurisdiction)</span></u></b> provides for the ideal balance between community control, technical stability, and
responsible corporate governance given the CCWG’s stated goals and concerns? Should ICANN consider relocating to another legal jurisdiction (outside of California), and if so, where and why?
<b><u><span style="color:red">Considering that ICANN's current jurisdiction may eventually impose restrictions with regards to some of the CCWG's goals and concerns, do these same restrictions also potentially apply in a scenario where ICANN has an international
status, i.e. it is not subject to the legislation of a single country?</span></u></b><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US">In order to avoid confusion, it is important to note that "relocating ICANN to another legal jurisdiction" does not necessarily mean moving ICANN's headquarters to another country/state. I thought it would be worth
mentioning it as in previous discussions this important distinction has not been stressed out.
