Is the Registrar of the disputed gTLD domain name to be involved in administrative proceeding involving a gTLD domain name?
No. According to Paragraphs 4(h) and 6 of the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP), the relevant Registrar will not participate in the administration or conduct of an administrative proceeding in respect of a gTLD domain name, and neither will the relevant Registrar be liable as a result of a Decision rendered by a Panel which has conducted an administrative proceeding. The relevant Registrar is not to be named as a party or otherwise in any administrative proceeding. The foregoing having been said, the relevant Registrar of course will implement a Decision of a Panel which after conducting an administrative proceeding calls for the cancellation or the transfer of a domain name which was in dispute.
