Yes, at the least, wasting huge piles of ARIN's money on legal fees; 
which is likely Kremen's entire intent, to "teach them a lesson" for 
not handing over what he wanted.

People who use the courts as a way to bleed their targets like this 
are vermin. Not surprising at all that this is all about some 
domain-squatting nonsense.

I do hope that ARIN can convince the judge to issue a summary 
judgement to throw this entire case out.
