Suggestions:
1) Send a complaint letter to ICANN via USPS, return receipt
requested, demanding normal registration of your domain name within
15 days, and attach copies of all communications with the registrar,
including e-mail messages. Send copies to your congressmen and
senators, and keep one for the court.
2) If no normal registration within 15 days, immediately file
charges of unfair business practices against the registrar and
ICANN, under your state's Commercial Code, in the superior court of
your county, asking for $75,000 damages (or whatever the minimum is
for Sup. Ct. jurisdiction there) if you feel you can justify that
much, otherwise file for less in a lower court. You can file quite
easily as a pro se complainant (self-litigant). Nothing to pay but
the filing fee, usually about $100. If there's a pro se office at
your courthouse, ask them for help.
3) Get a book called "Represent Yourself in Court", Bergman &
Berman-Barrett. Nolo Press, 1993. It will tell you how to proceed.
