I am lost on this. I have looked at the entire UDP and the CAC paper. I don't see anything in the CAC but procedural gobbledygook. all I can think of is that, for American domain holders, it doesn't matter what a Czech court does or wants. The constitution specifically states that no foreign court has any jurisdiction whatsoever over Americans on American soil. Further, the UDP itself requires that the dispute be adjudicated thusly -

Mutual Jurisdiction means a court jurisdiction at the location of either (a) the principal office of the Registrar (provided the domain-name holder has submitted in its Registration Agreement to that jurisdiction for court adjudication of disputes concerning or arising from the use of the domain name) or (b) the domain-name holder's address as shown for the registration of the domain name in Registrar's Whois database at the time the complaint is submitted to the Provider.

I would appreciate it if anyone on this forum can explain this stuff clearly, and what and where the threat lies, because right now all I see is gobbledygook.
