I was at TRAFFIC when it all went down and that was the word there. Seemed that Moniker was the only one that stood strong against the order. Have I been fed the wrong info?

I believe the domainers can be represented by their registrar at the hearing.

Sigh, one can only hope.

I'm not too sure. Legality seems to go out the window when it comes to domainers. Then due process kicks in: "Anybody who had their domains listed for seizure must be represented at the hearing or the domains will be officially seized." I suspect some domainers won't bother. I could be wrong. I hope I'm wrong. Illegal seizure ... but you have to traverse the bumpy, expensive legal system to get your domains returned to you. God bless America. “While it seems unlikely the seizure will withstand legal challenge …” I’m not too sure. Legality seems to go out the window when it comes to domainers.
