Bill -

ARIN has been before many judges successfully without any concerns, so your legal advice is best saved for others.

The policies at the time called for the recipient of the sale to enter
into "the" RSA, not "an" RSA.Moreover, it called for the legacy
registrant to sign the LRSA, then initiate a specified transfer to the
new registrant who would receive them under the RSA following a
successful justified needs analysis. Did I miss the part where the
Nortel bankruptcy trustees signed the LRSA on Nortel's behalf? As near
as I could tell, Microsoft directly became the registrant under the
LRSA bypassing the formal transfer step from one contracted party to
another.

We’ve actually been through this discussion before - suffice to say that this is well-covered in the archive.
