== original Dispute ==

 {{{
I no longer need or use CAcert for anything. So please delete my account.

All certificate created are invalid now but I assured a few people in 2007 but never
signed up for the new scheme.

Please inform when the process is done and my account deleted

Thanks in advanced
}}}

(There were active certificates found by Support and at least partly revoked by C, before dispute was handed over to Arbitration)


== Discovery ==
 * The claimant has requested to get his account closed.
 * The support ticket for the case shows, that the certificates were revoked.
 * The end date for the last signature on a pgp key for the account was in the middle of 2014-08
 * When the 3 months retention time after the end date of said signature is over, all assurances given by the assurer will be older than 7 years.

The account matches the prerequisites of the precedents ruling in [[Arbitrations/a20140713.1|a20140713.1]]. 

== Ruling ==
The account of the claimant should be closed with the process defined in
precedents case a20140713.1[2] with the following adjustment, as this
case matches the prerequisite defined there.

As the claimant is no longer an assurer, the CAcert Reliance Statement
(CARS) about the destruction of the CAcert Assurance Program (CAP) forms
cannot be given in this case. Instead the claimant should be asked to
destroy the CAP forms at the required time, as he promised the assurees
to do, when he signed the CAP forms. He should also be asked to confirm
this.

If the confirmation is not given after three reminders with a sensible
response time, the account should be closed, but the claimant remains
responsible for the CAP forms and their destruction and may be contacted
about them by the assurees or persons authorised by an Arbitrator.

Support should give a status report to the Arbitrator and Case Manager
of this case, when the account is closed.

Cologne, 2014-11-10<<BR>>
Eva Stöwe
