Ronald - If you have a case where you believe that resources were issued 
incorrectly, please report it. 

If you do not believe that resources were issued incorrectly, then do not 
report it.   

I am not sure it could be any simpler.

That’s an easy one - No, ARIN does not avoid policy enforcement our of concern 
of litigation. 

Many in the community would likely find that question amusing, as it is fairly 
well-known that
ARIN is both quite familiar with litigation and has a proven track record of 
success.

I do not believe that there are a significant number cases of resource 
revocation for reasons other 
than non-payment, dissolution, or Internet number resource fraud.  (Offhand to 
me, it is unclear why 
ARIN would have a significant number of resources revoked for any reasons aside 
from the above…)

None that I am aware of – please let us know if you are aware of any such 
cases.

We have no "facts of this case" because there is not report of any Internet 
number resource 
fraud occurring. 

You seem to simultaneous allege policy violations in the issuance but also 
decline to make 
a report so that we can investigate.

You assert such on this mailing list, but when asked to report the violation of 
policy you decline  – 
that is your choice.
