== Independent Review & Ruling == | |||
After ICANN's acceptance of the GAC's advice and its subsequent denial of Amazon's application for .amazon, Amazon filed for an Independent Review. In the final declaration dated 11 July 2017, the panel determined that ICANN's board gave too much deference to the GAC's advice. Furthermore, the panel determined that the board "failed in its duty to explain and give adequate reasons for its decision, beyond merely citing to its reliance on the GAC advice and the presumption."<ref>[https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/irp-amazon-final-declaration-11jul17-en.pdf IRP for .Amazon].
