Panelists

The Center's panelist candidates (*1) for JP Domain Name Dispute Resolution consist of attorneys-at-law, patent attorneys, and academic experts. Those who are appointed as panelists will address the resolution of disputes, taking advantage of their own expertise and experiences. See the list and background information of panelist candidates here.

In the case where either party (the complainant or the domain name registrant) chooses a three member panel, the Center shall, in principle, appoint one panelist from the lists of three candidates submitted respectively by each party. The third panelist shall be appointed as a chief panelist by the Center.

In the case where both parties (the complainant or the domain name registrant) do not choose a three member panel, the Center shall appoint one panelist from the Center's list of panelists.

*1 Since they become panelists only after the commencement of the proceedings of JP Domain Name Dispute Resolution and their subsequent appointment as panelists, they are referred to as panelist candidates until their appointments have been confirmed.
