When we have had any issues like this with Tucows they have had procedures in place and someone to coordinate those procedures. We have been informed every step of the way. As I se it the registrar in this case is on very difficult legal ground as there has been no UDRP decision or court decision. They have preemtively changed the registrant of the domain name with very little justification other than the complainant being a larger business entity than the owner. This sort of thing makes me rather mad. The registrant is being very good humoured so far as something of this sort was not unexpected but he expected to be going through the correct UDRP channels.
