Well, since the domain has no name service, it's clearly dead.

My inclination would be to send in an update template with Joe Blow's
address in the From: line, documenting in the comments what you're
doing.  Deleting the domain seems appropriate, but as a lesser measure
you could identify new servers 10.255.255.255 and 10.255.255.254 named
ns1.lamedelegation.net and ns2.lamedelegation.net.
