Your site indicated that the culprit seeking to "own" your domain is Peters/Freedman as a "face" for a homeowner's association seeking the domain site.
Please advise the name of the HOA.
I live in an HOA and Peters/Freedman is, at present, advisor to the Board.

Writers push for laws to maintain Internet freedom
Writers Guild president, Justine Batemen testifying before Senate committee
FCC Chairman: "I do not believe any additional regulations are needed"
Goal is guaranteeing Internet's status as an open forum for communication
Large network owners are opposed to network neutrality legislation
WASHINGTON (AP) -- During the recent writers strike that virtually paralyzed television production for three months, Patric Verrone learned the true value of the Internet.
Patric Verrone, president of the Writers Guild, said the Web helped writers stay in contact during the strike.
It was his job as president of the Writers Guild of America, West, to keep his members unified during the highly public 100-day strike, and the Internet proved invaluable.
"When your employers are the same companies that control the media, it's hard to get your message out," he said in an interview.
To maintain contact with one another, guild members used blog postings, e-mail and videos. It was the success of that campaign that prompted Verrone to come to Washington and push for legislation that he hopes will guarantee the Internet's status as an open forum for communication.
Verrone was appearing Tuesday before the Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee at a hearing on the future of the Internet.
At the hearing, Federal Communications Commission Chairman Kevin Martin testified that his agency's policy gives it sufficient authority to prevent discrimination by Internet providers.
"I do not believe any additional regulations are needed at this time," he said, noting the commission's recent enforcement actions.
The issue of "network neutrality" -- the principle that people should be able to go where they choose on the Internet without interference from network owners -- has heated up again recently.
The FCC has conducted two hearings on "network management" following admissions by Comcast Corp. that it sometimes delayed file-sharing traffic for subscribers as a way to keep Web traffic flowing.
The network neutrality debate has divided Congress, with Democrats largely in favor and Republicans mostly opposed, a point that was clear at Tuesday's committee meeting.
"It is a political division now and it's getting more so," said Sen. Ted Stevens, R-Alaska. "It is unfortunate."
Stevens said a return to "intense regulation" of the Internet is "entirely unwarranted."
A notable exception to the partisan divide is Sen. Olympia Snowe, R-Maine, who is co-sponsoring network neutrality legislation with Sen. Byron Dorgan, D-N.D.
Verrone, a television writer and producer for over 20 years, supports the legislation.
The writers strike, in addition to depending on the Internet for communication, was also largely prompted by the Internet. The writers guild fought successfully to be paid for content they create for use online as well as the reuse of previously created programs that appear on new platforms.
Large network owners like cable and telecommunications companies are opposed to network neutrality legislation, saying it would add a layer of regulation that will hurt consumers. They say it is unnecessary and amounts to a solution in search of a problem.
Verrone wants Washington to ensure that the owners of the information pipelines in the U.S. do not interfere with the free exchange of ideas.
"The only thing bigger than corporations in this country is the government," he said. "So we think we have to make clear to legislators that we need somebody making sure that that pipe is neutral."

Have the CAI and HOA Nazis gotten so powerful that they can successfully silence the majority? Yes.This is scary. What next? Early curfews and Death squads? Has everyone forgotten that we are in the USA? No. However, it does appear that "everyone" has forgotten that it takes **We The People** to keep things like this in check here in these United States.

1. Keep your website open.
2. Have massive backups: run it in massive redundancy from lots of subscribers' machines.
3. Archive massively everything you've got, and put it on DVDs.
4. The hell with the court order. Your lives are your own, live them as you will.

Can you not go to the federal government Department of Commerce, and file an appeal and/or complaint?
It still boggles my mind how a local court has control over the rights of a domain name when even they admit it looks suspicious as to why Peters and Freedman has fought for a domain name that has already been in someone else's possession since February 25, 1997.

Under what legal precept does any attorney appointed Commish (Myers) decide to close one registered domain and GIVE that domain to a non-registered domain, in particular to an attorney group....a group highly suspect in jurisprudence.
Would it not be beneficial to each of us for AHRC's attorney(s)to register a full complaint to the BAR?
Can you or would you publish the case so those persons unable to obtain the full disclosure of the case via OC Court, can see in total just what Peters and Freedman is up to? That gorilla has escaped the cage of legalities and it is time to lasso it and bring it back to a stronger cage.
BTW: What other legal avenues can the "common man" persue outside your site and outside the Orange County irrational court?
Thanks to all of you.

Homeowners report that the judges and lawyers employed by the Orange County Superior Court as Commissioners and Pro-tem judges (many are former CAI homeowner association collection lawyers) give homeowner association lawyers hundreds of thousands and even million dollar fees even when they know the homeowner has no ability to pay these lawyers outrageous and fraudulent bills.
These Orange County judges then retire and join private rental judges corporations (JAMS, Judicate West) . CAI lawyers employ these rental judges again at homeowners expense at $500. per hour to do phony "mediations" that again favor them and impoverish the victimized homeowner.
America's Home Foreclosure Crisis and the International Securities Fraud is the result of the homeowner association fraud operated by these CAI lawyers, judges,politicians, realtors, and allied insurance and banking companies
