| About |
Louis Touton became Vice-President, Secretary, and General Counsel of ICANN on 1 November 1999. Prior to that time, he was with the law firm of Jones, Day, Reavis & Pogue for eighteen years, first as an associate (1981-1988) and then as a partner (1989-1999) in its Los Angeles and Dallas offices. His practice at Jones Day focused on technology-related commercial litigation, prominently including patent litigation in the semiconductor and communication industries. During the last 18 months of his practice at Jones Day, he was a legal advisor in connection with the formation of ICANN, the registrar-accreditation and dispute-resolution policies, and the NSI/DOC/ICANN agreements. He is a member of the bars of Arizona, California, Texas, and Washington; is admitted to practice before nine U.S. federal courts; and is registered to handle patent matters before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

In 1998, I was a lawyer working at Jones Day in Los Angeles, specializing in patent lawsuits. Specifically, I was a member of Jones Day's Technology Issues Practice, which sought to assist companies becoming involved in computer and communications technologies, including the Internet. Meanwhile, in early May the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) was preparing to transition its home base from the University of Southern California's Information Sciences Institute (ISI) to a new, independent and not-for-profit organization. more
