<p class="MsoNormal">As for other issues, I had posted an email re IRP Fees last Sept. Now the fee is $6,750 merely to initiate an IRP at the ICDR. I think that is an administrative fee that the Bylaws require ICANN to pay. But ICANN denies that, and forces
claimants to pay it. I think it should cost far less to file a challenge to an ICANN decision. Note that it costs just $400 to file a lawsuit in U.S. federal court.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Also, we should discuss when an RFR is 'summarily dismissed' by the BAMC, which has only happened very rarely in the past. But it appears very unclear how or when such a dismissal can or must be challenged. And so that is another scenario
that needs review by this group, imho.<o:p></o:p></p>
