[Ws2-jurisdiction] Notes, recordings and transcript for WS2 Jurisdiction Subgroup Meeting # 24 | 28 March 2017

Mon Apr 3 12:00:48 UTC 2017

Dear Colleagues,

Further to our review of these cases during last week’s call, I have made 
some amendments to the 3 summary forms attached. These changes clarify the 
Choice of Law section mostly.

Best

Mathieu

Becky Burr - ICANN used to put in a choice of law claue in its contracts 
which it does not do anymore.

              ii)   State of AZ vs NTIA V2 - MW

Mathieu Weill - (presentation of summary sheet). Did not feel comfortable 
filling in the "choice of law/gov. law" field.

Greg Shatan - did the court rule on the jurisdiction argument (MW - no 
mention of it). Any questions? (none).

             iii)   Ben Haim v. Iran – MW

Mathieu Weill - (presentation of summary sheet). Did not feel comfortable 
filling in the "choice of law/gov. law" field.

Becky Burr: there was a long discussion in the cases regarding which 
attachment law (state) applied

Becky Burr: DC or California

Mathieu Weill: I'll check the case and extract the relevant parts

Becky Burr: not WOULD have, but potentially could have

Becky Burr: because the plaintiffs sought the attachment in DC

David McAuley (RySG): just getting wind of this discussion - in the case on 
screen I think coutrt applied DC law which is a tad unusual on attachment

Becky Burr: so the plaintiff controlled here

Becky Burr: yes, David, you and I are on the same wavelength

Greg Shatan -  should we add a field to the form about alternate 
jurisdictions.

Mathieu Weill - Do not think we should theorize about this - we just do our 
analysis and then look at statistics they yield.

Becky Burr: correct Mattieu

David McAuley (RySG): good point @Mathieu

Greg Shatan - Agree we should not do studies beyond what is provided in the 
materials.

6.  AOB
