Auerbach Wins, Court Criticizes ICANN
It's hard to imagine a more complete win than what ICANN Director Karl 
Auerbach received today from Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Dzintra Janavs. 
Working from my notes, Judge Janavs' ruling was in three parts: (1) 
non-confidential records maintained in electronic form shall be delivered to 
Mr. Auerbach by August 2nd; (2) non-confidential documents maintained in 
non-electronic form shall be made available for Mr. Auerbach's review in 
Marina del Rey at a mutually agreeable time before August 9th (and Mr. 
Auerbach is entitled to request copies of the non-confidential documents); 
and (3) "Confidential" documents, whether in electronic form or in hard-copy, 
shall be made available for Mr. Auerbach's review in Marina del Rey at a 
mutually agreeable time before August 9th. Mr. Auerbach cannot disclose the 
contents of a document designated "confidential" without giving ICANN at 
least 10 days notice (and the burden then would fall to ICANN to seek further 
protective orders preventing disclosure). Mr. Auerbach's access is not 
conditioned on his signing, or agreeing to abide by, the confidentiality form 
presented by ICANN. 

(That's what my notes reflect, but a written Order and Judgment should issue 
from the Court later this week.)

The more interesting part of today's hearing was what the Court said from the 
bench. That's what I'll post next. It's the second part of my headline.
