auDA had a bad run in Federal Court today. They had a huge legal team from Ashurst, their own counsel, a barrister, auDA directors, the chair auDA staff. The full entourage was present.
In short:
-The judge apparently wasn't impressed by auDA's arguments as to the cost of holding the SGM
-Told auDA the law is the law
-I don't believe the government letter had any effect
-Only swaying factor was the registry transformation project which would be transitioning right at the time of the SGM
auDA's 90 day request to delay the SGM denied by the Federal Court. The judge gave 30 days only because of the RTP timing.
So the question is, what did it cost auDA to send a team of lawyers to get a 30 day extension, to send staff directors for something they are legally obliged to hold?
Why would anyone buy auDA's argument about the $70,000 cost of the SGM when they probably spent near that much for 1 day in court?
