Hi Ron,
I have wondered myself. I have heard of a team inside ARIN working to
identify such blocks, if my memory serves.
I have seen administratively and voluntarily dissolved corporations come
back to life, so ARIN must consider this.
The duration of dormancy allowed varies from jurisdiction to
"voluntarily dissolved corporations"
This term has caused me much grief with ARIN.
I being a sole proprietorship had many issues and 2 years proving who I was to
get resources.
Amd it is almost impossible to get legacy resources transferred by ARIN if from
sole proprietorship.

I don't think there is any such process today. I would like to see such a

Adam -
Contact the Registration Services Helpdesk… we deal with situations like this
fairly often and can often find
a way to either get the registration updated (so that the holder can use or
monetize the resources) or have
them relinquished back to the registry.
Thanks!
