[IOT] Today's Call - Draft Rule 7

Tue Jul 25 15:18:20 UTC 2023

Kristina, thanks so much for spotting this.  It looks as though the Google Docs version that was circulated is an earlier draft and therefore does not capture a few of the changes that the small team subsequently discussed, including those you have flagged.  They are captured in the Word attachments dated 12 July, which we will work off during our upcoming call.

All – Flip has added some comments to the clean (non-redline) Word doc and circulated earlier today.  We will therefore work off this version for the call (attached).  We will also have the redline version available should we need it (also attached) but as previously mentioned it is quite difficult to read so less easy to work from.

Our agenda:

  1.  Review agenda and updates to SOIs
  2.  Action items: Rule 3 panel selection
  3.  Review and discussion of the small team’s proposed revision to Rule 7
  4.  AOB
  5.  Next call 8 August tbc

Subject: [IOT] Today's Call - Draft Rule 7

All,

With apologies, I will miss today's call. I'll be in transit from North Carolina after my son's college baseball season.

I was part of the team working on this proposed draft rule 7.  I support it.

It appears that the circulated draft may have inadvertently omitted two proposed changes to section 25 (amicus curiae). I had proposed the following change to 25(i) to restrict its breadth given the existence of 25(ii)-(iv). It was my understanding that the small team supported this change:

  *   25(i):  A person, group or entity that participated in an underlying proceeding (a process-specific expert panel per ICANN Bylaws, Article 4, Section 4.3(b)(iii)(A)(3)), the outcome of which is material and relevant to the DISPUTE.  [proposed change in bold and underscore].
The team also discussed a proposed change to 25 that would clarify the purpose of amicus curiae to provide guidance to the Panel, the community and potential amicus curiae. It was my understanding that the majority of the small team supported this change.

25.  Any person, group or entity that has a material interest relevant to the DISPUTE but does not satisfy the standing requirements for a CLAIMANT set forth in the Bylaws may participate as an amicus curiae before an IRP PANEL, subject to the limitations below. The purpose of participation as an amicus curiae is to assist the IRP PANEL by offering information, expertise or insight that has bearing on the issues in DISPUTE, which is between ICANN and the CLAIMANT. Without limitation to the persons, groups or entities that may have such a material interest, the following persons, groups, or entities shall be deemed to have a material interest relevant to the DISPUTE and, upon request of person, group or entity seeking to so participate, shall be permitted to participate as an amicus before the IRP PANEL: [proposed change in bold and underline]
