Paul, please elaborate on your cryptic message.. What is "this" that
the ICANN chair had no idea that we continue to discuss? And what
was it that he "made clear"? What implications has that for our
work? You should excuse us those who were not at Copenhagen to be
wondering about all this...<br>

Paraminder – but just saying it is absurd doesn’t change the
facts. The only way in which US jurisdiction has a superior
claim is with respect to the law of jurisdictional
organization. In other words, California corporate law
governs ICANN’s bylaws formulation and Board and corporate
operations preferentially. But any place that ICANN does
business is a potential place to sue on contract, or tort
basis.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

We have been over this many times, but I simply cannot let
pass this absurd proposition that India, for instance, has a
comparable jurisdictional leverage over ICANN to US. I do not
know why, even as a lawyer, you keep on making it.<br>
<br>
And if indeed it was so, why not then lets have ICANN be moved
to India or Switzerland.. US can still keep exercising its
jurisdiction over ICANN, as you argue it will be able to, and
all others can be happy too! <br>
<br>
Meanwhile, it is not just the matter of a court exercising
jurisdiction, but even more importantly of having leverage to
enforce its writ.... <br>
<br>
As to the "substantial contacts" argument, if you go through
the various court cases involving ICANN, you will see that
wherever possible ICANN has denied "substantial contacts" is
all places other than California, US, arguing that its role
in the DNS stops with making a contract with a registry, which
contract is deemed to have been made in California and is
subject to its laws. Rest, downstream in the DNS, is none of
ICANN's business...<br>

Canadian court agree to that submission. I would
expect ICANN’s lawyers to make that argument and I
would also expect based on what little I know of
Canadian law that in the end the court would have
rejected the argument. </span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><br>
It is absolutely significant that<br>
<br>
(1) In the only documented case which went before a non
US court, ICANN promptly contested the court's
jurisdiction. This is fact was its primary argument as
far as I can see from the case details.<br>
<br>
(2) In none of more than 20 other documents cases, all
in US courts, ICANN ever contested -- in the slightest
-- the court's jurisdiction over ICANN or the matter
under consideration. <br>
<br>
It clearly shows that everyone -- ICANN, US courts, in
fact even all of us -- know what is what vis a vis the
absolute jurisdictional powers of US over ICANN, and
thus over its policies and their implementation, and
very feeble jurisdictional leeway (and even lesser
enforcement capacity) that non US courts and other state
agencies have over ICANN. <br>
<br>
We are simply wasting out time trying to minutely
examine facts that are fairly well established and
normally not contested. <br>
<br>
As you agreed with me in a way, lets come to the crux of
the matter, and see what is this group really trying to
do, what progress we are making or not making, what is
the prognosis of possible outcomes, and so on....<br>
<br>
IMHO we are just making ourselves believe that we are
doing something in this group, when in fact we are not
doing anything at all. <br>
<br>
<b><i>Sub-group chairs,</i></b><br>
<br>
Kavouss had put the matter to the CCWG chairs of the
email I wrote about the non progress of this groups
work. CCWG chair seem to have ordered the matter to be
addressed by the sub group. Are you going to take up
that matter?<br>
<br>
Also note that Paul too agreed with me that we seem not
to be going anywhere (or some such, I do not want to put
words in his mouth, his email of a few days back may be
read)<br>
<br>
Thanks, parminder <br>

a lot for sharing this Mathieu, I guess this
removes any claims that the experience would be
the same if ICANN were sued outside of her
jurisdiction of incorporation. The following text
makes that quite clear:<br>
<br>
"Defendant ICANN asserted that the Court lacked
jurisdiction because (quoting the argument):<br>
ICANN is not resident in Ontario<br>
The Action has no real or substantial connection
to Ontario<br>
Virtually all the evidence and witnesses are in
California"<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">I
am not a lawyer but perhaps it may be good to know
how flexible it is for non-US customer of ICANN to
legally engage/challenge ICANN in her place of
incorporation. The impact of this on US-banned
countries may also be a good to know.<o:p></o:p></p>
