Medium Scale Integration - WASHINGTON, Sept 30 (Reuters) - A federal appeals court in St. Louison Tuesday agreed to transfer to a Washington court challenges of newrules for sharing local telephone networks and the deployment of newfiber networks.The Federal Communications Commission recently released newregulations requiring the dominant carriers to continue sharing forlocal voice service but freed them from sharing new fiber networksused for high-speed Internet services.Dominant local telephone carriers like BellSouth Corp. argue theyshould not have to continue sharing their networks with rivals atcut-rate prices while new local telephone carriers believe they shouldhave access to the fiber networks for broadband services at adiscount.That sparked challenges from both sides in multiple appeals courts,and the St. Louis court was assigned the case. The Bells requested itbe transferred to the Washington court since it ruled on the matterpreviously.http://www.forbes.com/newswire/2003/09/30/rtr1095490.htmlEric Friedebach
