New .eu related ruling expected in Brussels

Pursuant to Regulation 874/2004, any verification by the Registry of the validity of a .eu registration application shall take place subsequently to the registration at the initiative of the Registry.
Domaines.info reports that EURid wished to verify that the holder of 10,000 names, who provided a physical address in UK, actually had a domicile there.
EURid was not satisfied with the evidence of domicile, and blocked all the names. The holder is challenging this decision before a Brussels court, which should issue its ruling in the beginning of September.
