BtW, <paste> "The term interim order refers to an order issued by a court during the pendency of the litigation. It is generally issued by the Court *to ensure Status quo*. The rationale for such orders to be issued by the Courts is best explained by the Latin legal maxim "Actus curiae neminem gravabit" which, translated to English, stands for "an act of the court shall prejudice no one". Therefore, to ensure that none of the interests of the parties to the litigation are harmed, the court may issue an interim order." </paste> __ [1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interim_order#:~:text=The%20te rm%20interim,an%20interim%20order. > > > The meaning of interim isn't really difficult. > > Right!

Are you really celebrating victory before the end of that machiavelous war? Please, tell the rioters to don't try to *sell* this RIR's service region IPv4 pool for out of region use; before having shutdowned the RIR, *bought* its community and fully replaced the global INRS... > > So unless the court appoints directors you have a company of the nature of > Afrinic with three directors. > > > ...so! there is still a way around; as the MU's 2001 company act is not silent on that topic.

A normal LIR (Local Internet Registry) holding such a huge amount of IPv4 resources would have been a natural source of various investments within the region associated with the RIR (Regional Internet Registry) which allocated those Internet number resources. But that very AfriNIC's RM seems to prefer to waste its money, gained in exploiting (out of region) those IPv4 resources, to fight AfriNIC; while attempting to corrupt this RIR's community, the other AfriNIC's RMs and the entire INRS' community... :'-( ...*investing*, an apparently unlimited budget, in numerous litigations against a non profit, while no record of infrastructural investment accross that RIR's service region seems to exist... As i might have been wrong from the beginning... then, please, brother feel free to correct me. Remain blessed!
