Domain Name Disputes

Administrative Panel Decisions

David has rendered more than 350 administrative panel decisions (approximately 370 to date) in internet domain name disputes under the Uniform Domain-Name Dispute-Resolution Policy (UDRP) and related procedures. He writes his decisions in both English and Chinese — including disputes involving Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs) in Chinese characters — reading and typing Chinese in both simplified and traditional characters. He is appointed to the WIPO .UK panel of Experts, and is also admitted as a panelist with Forum, the Canadian International Internet Dispute Resolution Centre (CIIDRC), and the Asian Domain Name Dispute Resolution Centre (ADNDRC).
