Incomplete information are worse than no information. It would be more useful and interesting to see a ration of decisions. For example – MICHAEL SPENCE – 5 decisions for Respondents, but how many for Complainant..? What is his ratio..?
The number of decisions for complainant would have very little meaning as a very high percentage of those decisions are due to the Respondent not contesting the UDRP. All the Complainant has to do is to make out a Prima faciecase and the burden shifts to the Respondent.
