Order Was Result Of Ovidio Court Action Against Eurid
It turns out that the Belgian court order that forced EURid to reactivate over 74000 on-hold domain names was the result of the Ovidio syndicate registrars and registrants taking EURid to court. The court ordered EURid to reactivate the domains within 48 hours or face a fine of 25000 Euros per domain per hour for each hour it was in contempt of the order.
In July, EURId had cut the registrars’ connection to the registry system thus making it impossible for them to register domains and it put over 74000 domains on hold. This latest Belgian court action is the result of the registrars and registrants taking action against EURid to restore service and reactivate the domains.
The EURid action is scheduled for hearing next month.
