news.yahoo.com/s/nm/2010 ··· st_courtU.S. judges put the Federal Communications Commission in the hot seat on Friday, questioning whether the communications regulator acted properly when it sanctioned Comcast Corp for blocking file-sharing services on its broadband network.
A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit appeared unsatisfied with FCC arguments and was probing to determine whether the FCC acted based on established rules or direct authority from Congress involving broadband network management issues .
It appears the FCC acted based on policy statements that are "aspirational, not operational," Judge A. Raymond Randolph told FCC General Counsel Austin Schlick in a packed courtroom.
FCC's Schlick and Marvin Ammori, an attorney representing public interest groups such as Free Press and Consumers Union, argued that, if the FCC lost the case, it was better for it to lose based on the agency's procedures rather than on the grounds the FCC lacks broad authority. They urged the judges to provide guidance to help the FCC with future actions. "We don't give guidance. We decide cases," Judge Randolph said.
