Bill Purdy vs. the Faegre & Benson law firm (guess who wins) [fs]

[Declan McCullagh <declan () well com>]

Basically Bill has been registering domains relating to a law firm that 
apparently has defended some pro-choice clients. He's been slapped with an 
order to dispose of them.

I've placed the two files here:

Dear Declan,

I know I am Pro-Life which is only one small step above a TERRORIST when it 
comes to rights in court, but this is really something.  First they have a 
hearing WITHOUT NOTICE to me, or WITHOUT an opportunity for me to be 
heard.  Even the press was astounded to learn they had had the hearing 
without proper notice - filed the notice AFTER the hearing.  Now they are 
asserting authority and jurisdiction over registrars in Germany and France, 
and the U.S. Government is using alleged WPIO rule violations as a reason 
to "rescind" the legitimate transfer of domain names.  I transferred 
www.Faegre-Benson.com and www.Faegre.biz to a gentleman who wanted them and 
who lives in Canada BEFORE the hearing (without me there) or before the 
order was  issued.
