National Arbitration Forum Named Dispute Resolution Provider for Internet Domain Registrar Disputes

    MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- The National Arbitration Forum and
the Asian Domain Name Dispute Resolution Centre (ADNDRC) have been approved as
independent dispute resolution providers for the Transfer Dispute Resolution
Policy (TDRP) as announced today by the Internet Corporation for Assigned
Names and Numbers (ICANN).  This policy is part of the Inter-Registrar
Transfer Policy, which will go into effect on November 12, 2004.
    The Policy provides that registrars wishing to dispute another registrar's
alleged violations of this policy may initiate a dispute proceeding with the
appropriate registry operator or with an independent dispute resolution
provider such as the National Arbitration Forum.  Decisions made under this
policy by the registry operator may be appealed to an independent dispute
resolution provider.
    Based in North America, the National Arbitration Forum was founded in
1986.  The National Arbitration Forum currently administers cases under
ICANN's UDRP and other policies involving domain name disputes.
