Eurid On Disputes

April 26, 2006 by Michele Neylon

The .eu dispute resolution mechanism is called ADR (Alternative Dispute Resolution). You can find more information about the system and how to avail of it on the dedicated site

Funnily enough Eurid have registered the domain adr.eu, but for some odd reason have not created any DNS entries nor are they actively using it. Unfortunately nobody seems to have told the web designers who have created a nice big logo using the non-functioning url adr.eu:

On the main Eurid website the latest news item is not displaying, however if you go to the news page you will be greeted with this:

The first .eu dispute has been settled via the .eu’s Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) Policy. Currently there are a handful of disputes being processed and just over 100 cases have been initiated. All verdicts are published by the Czech arbitration Court who facilitates the .eu dispute resolutions.

Could this be due to the costs involved?

Why does this sound so bad?

Well it could simply be that the translation is not very good.

The original text reads:

Le premier litige relatif à un nom de domaine en .eu vient d’être tranché par le biais d’une procédure de résolution de conflits ADR. A ce jour, une centaine de recours de ce type ont été introduits et plusieurs d’entre eux sont en cours de traitement. Tous les verdicts sont publiés sur le site de la Cour d’Arbitrage Tchèque, laquelle est en charge du traitement des litiges.
