Owen -

Thank you for your interesting analysis of the recent court judgement announced 
below by AFRINIC –  could please you share some reference to the document that 
is the basis for your views?

(I was not aware that the judgement had been made publicly available.)

Thanks!

It does not… The current injunction still stands. In fact, the standing of the 
current injunction is the basis on which the
judge ruled that the appeal was effectively moot and therefore dismissed it.

Thanks for the update which you seem to be celebrating (if I read you 
correctly). For those like me who are legalese-challenged, does this mean that 
Cloud Innovation's resources are now effectively revoked? If I remember 
correctly, all of this started with a notice that resources were to be revoked 
at a certain date on the basis of non-compliance with the RSA, right?

Dear Colleagues,

I am pleased to share with you the ruling delivered yesterday, 14 February 
2022, in the appeal case ref Cloud Innovation Ltd vs African Network 
Information Centre (AfriNIC) Ltd. https://afrinic.net/ast/case9-judgement.pdf

This case was filed in response to a letter that AFRINIC sent to Cloud 
Innovation Ltd dated 10 March 2021 pursuant to the provisions of the 
Registration Service Agreement (RSA) whereby AFRINIC contended that Cloud 
Innovation Ltd was, and continues to be, in breach of the RSA.

This appeal stems from Cloud Innovation Ltd’s application for Interim 
Injunction, which was initially granted in its favour on 29 March 2021, but 
then set aside by the Honourable Judge in Chambers on 07 July 2021. Cloud 
Innovation Ltd had appealed against that judgement, and the hearing took place 
on 27 January 2022.

To put it simply, the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of Mauritius has, 
after having considered the arguments from both sides, dismissed the appeal. In 
other words, AFRINIC has won this appeal.

No doubt, this is an essential milestone for AFRINIC, and we wish to thank the 
team and our stakeholders for their continued support.


Kind Regards,

Chief Executive Officer,

Chers collègues,

J'ai le plaisir de vous faire part de ce jugement rendu hier, 14 février 2022, 
dans l'affaire en appel réf Cloud Innovation Ltd vs African Network Information 
Centre (AfriNIC) Ltd.

https://afrinic.net/ast/case9-judgement.pdf

Cette affaire a été déposée en réponse à un courrier qu’AFRINIC a envoyé à 
Cloud Innovation Ltd en date du 10 mars 2021 conformément aux dispositions du 
Registration Service Agreement (RSA), dans lequel l'AFRINIC soutenait que Cloud 
Innovation Ltd était, et continue d'être, en infraction avec le RSA.

Cet appel découle de la demande d'injonction provisoire de Cloud Innovation 
Ltd, qui a été initialement accordée en sa faveur le 29 mars 2021, mais ensuite 
annulée par l'honorable juge en chambre le 7 juillet 2021. Cloud Innovation Ltd 
a fait appel de ce jugement, et l'audience a eu lieu le 27 janvier 2022.

En bref, la division d'appel de la Cour suprême de Maurice a, après avoir 
examiné les arguments des deux parties, rejeté l'appel. En d'autres termes, 
AFRINIC a gagné cet appel.

Il s'agit sans aucun doute d'une étape essentielle pour l'AFRINIC, et nous 
souhaitons remercier l'équipe et nos parties prenantes pour leur soutien 
continu.


Cordialement

زملائي الأعزاء،

يسعدني أن أشارككم الحكم الصادر بالأمس ، 14 فبراير 2022 ، في قضية الاستئناف 
المرجع Cloud Innovation Ltd vs African Network Information Center (AfriNIC) 
Ltd. https://afrinic.net/ast/case9-judgement.pdf

تم رفع هذه القضية ردًا على خطاب أرسلته AFRINIC إلى Cloud Innovation Limited 
بتاريخ 10 مارس 2021 وفقًا لأحكام اتفاقية خدمة التسجيل (RSA) حيث أكدت AFRINIC أن 
Cloud Innovation Ltd كانت ولا تزال تنتهك RSA.

ينبع هذا الاستئناف من طلب Cloud Innovation Limited للأمر المؤقت ، والذي تم منحه 
في البداية لصالحها في 29 مارس 2021 ، ولكن بعد ذلك ألغاه القاضي الموقر في 
الدوائر في 07 يوليو 2021. استأنفت Cloud Innovation Limited ضد هذا الحكم ، و 
عُقدت جلسة الاستماع في 27 يناير 2022.

وببساطة ، فإن دائرة الاستئناف في المحكمة العليا لموريشيوس ، بعد أن نظرت في 
الحجج المقدمة من كلا الجانبين ، رفضت الاستئناف. بعبارة أخرى ، حازت AFRINIC على 
هذا النداء.

لا شك أن هذا يعد معلمًا أساسيًا لـ AFRINIC ، ونود أن نشكر الفريق وأصحاب المصلحة 
لدينا على دعمهم المستمر.


أطيب التحيات،


إيدي كاييهورا ،
الرئيس التنفيذى،

Caros Colegas,

Tenho o prazer de partilhar convosco a decisão proferida ontem, 14 de Fevereiro 
de 2022, no processo de recurso ref Cloud Innovation Ltd contra African Network 
Information Centre (AfriNIC) Ltd.
https://afrinic.net/ast/case9-judgement.pdf

Este caso foi arquivado em resposta a uma carta que a AFRINIC enviou à Cloud 
Innovation Ltd com data de 10 de Março de 2021, em conformidade com as 
disposições do Acordo de Serviço de Registo (RSA) em que a AFRINIC alegava que 
a Cloud Innovation Ltd estava, e continua a estar, em violação da RSA.

Este recurso decorre do pedido de injunção provisória da Cloud Innovation Ltd, 
que foi inicialmente concedido a seu favor a 29 de Março de 2021, mas depois 
anulado pelo Meritíssimo Juiz das Câmaras a 07 de Julho de 2021. A Cloud 
Innovation Ltd tinha recorrido dessa sentença, e a audiência teve lugar a 27 de 
Janeiro de 2022.

Para simplificar, a Divisão de Apelação do Supremo Tribunal das Maurícias, após 
ter considerado os argumentos de ambas as partes, indeferiu o recurso. Por 
outras palavras, a AFRINIC ganhou este recurso.

Sem dúvida, este é um marco essencial para a AFRINIC, e gostaríamos de 
agradecer à equipa e às nossas partes interessadas o seu apoio continuado.


Cumprimentos,


Eddy Kayihura,
Chefe do Executivo,
