erizon calls the decision "the largest cybersquatting judgment ever" – which is probably a bit far-reaching unless the company follows the ancient Mayan calendar in which the universe ends in 2012.

¿Tiene esto algo que ver conhttp://www.belgiumdomains.com/lawsuit.htm?:: el roce hace el dominio ::

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT Defendant OnlineNIC Inc. ("OnlineNIC"), and OnlineNIC's officers, directors, employees, representatives, agents, successors-in-interest, parent corporations, subsidiary corporations, affiliated companies, and all other persons, firms or entities acting in concert or participating with them, directly or indirectly, is prohibited from:
...snip...
4. transferring, releasing, deleting, or assigning any domain names;
5. changing the companies or customer identification numbers used to generate any monies from any of the domain names; and
6. assisting, aiding or abetting any other person or business entity in engaging in or performing any of the activities referred to in subparagraphs 1-5 above,

This injunction shall not apply to transactions required in the ordinary course of lawful business which are made in good faith and which do not deprive Plaintiffs of their ability to satisfy their judgment.
"

My domain name does not infringe any of Verizon's trademarks, and is certainly not named in the lawsuit, so it does not deprive Verizon of the ability to satisfy the judgment. OnlineNIC became the registrar of record for my domain name in the ordinary course of lawful business, and are required by ICANN policy to, in the ordinary course of business, not reject the transfer except as allowed by ICANN policy. Accepting such a transfer would certainly be in good faith.

ICANN's policy at url removed due to WHT restrictions says:
"
The Registrar of Record may deny a transfer request only in the following specific instances:

1. Evidence of fraud
2. UDRP action
3. Court order by a court of competent jurisdiction
4. Reasonable dispute over the identity of the Registered Name Holder or Administrative Contact
5. No payment for previous registration period (including credit card charge-backs) if the domain name is past its expiration date or for previous or current registration periods if the domain name has not yet expired. In all such cases, however, the domain name must be put into "Registrar Hold" status by the Registrar of Record prior to the denial of transfer.
6. Express written objection to the transfer from the Transfer Contact. (e.g. - email, fax, paper document or other processes by which the Transfer Contact has expressly and voluntarily objected through opt-in means)
7. A domain name was already in "lock status" provided that the Registrar provides a readily accessible and reasonable means for the Registered Name Holder to remove the lock status.
8. A domain name is in the first 60 days of an initial registration period.
9. A domain name is within 60 days (or a lesser period to be determined) after being transferred (apart from being transferred back to the original Registrar in cases where both Registrars so agree and/or where a decision in the dispute resolution process so directs).
"
So now that 3 is ruled out, there is no legitimate reason for OnlineNIC to refuse the transfer.

The procedure from here is to attempt the transfer with another registrar, and when they deny the transfer, the new registrar can complain to the registry (i.e. Verisign) under the Registrar Transfer Dispute Policy ( URL removed due to WHT restrictions ) that OnlineNIC is improperly denying the transfer. If Verisign decides in favour of the new registrar - which they should if OnlineNIC's only excuse is their systems aren't working - then the cost of processing the dispute have to be met by OnlineNIC.

OnlineNic registered more than 900,000 domain names similar to some of the world’s biggest companies, including Google, Adidas, the News Corporation’s MySpace, Wal-Mart Stores and Yahoo, Verizon said in court papers. Verizon accused OnlineNic of using an automated process to register the addresses and employing “numerous means to conceal its true identity.”
