RE:DN LYC-O4-01: Light year Network Solutions, LLC - Application to Provide
Facilities-based Local Exchange Service
Response to staff data request and amended tariff pages
Dear Ms Jewell:
Enclosed for filing are the original and two (2) copies of the response to staffs May 24 2004 data
request submitted on behalf of Lightyear Network Solutions, LLC.
Slamming Complaint
With respect to the open slamming complaint, Lightyear had submitted a response to the
Commission requesting certain rates in order to calculate the refund for the customer. Lightyear
had also sent a letter to the customer stating its intention to provide a refund. No response from
either the Commission or the Customer was received. Upon receipt of the May 24 data request
Lightyear contacted Daniel Klein, and has again attempted to contact the Customer. Lightyear
will continue to work with staff until the issue is resolved.
F inancia1s
Financial statements for L Y Solutions, LLC are attached with a request for confidential handling.
Modifications to Lightyear s application - Section vrn - Waivers and Regulatory Compliance
(a)Title 41, Chapter 1 , Rules 101-103.02 - Guarantee in lieu of deposit
In its application, Lightyear requested an exemption from the rule requiring a guarantee
form to be kept on file in lieu of a deposit. According to the data request, since
Lightyear does not intend to require deposits, the waiver request becomes moot.
Therefore, Lightyear withdraws its request for waiver of the rule.
(b)Title 41 , Chapter 1 , Rule 502.01 - Service Standards
In its application, Lightyear requested waiver of the requirement to adopt and pursue a
maintenance program for outside plant facilities and equipment, on the basis that
Lightyear is at present a UNE-P provider only. In its data request, staff stated that it
would not support this request because it is an interconnection contractual agreement
between Lightyear and the ILEC. Staff also cited the recent Eighth Circuit Court's recent
ruling vacating portions of the FCC's Triennial Review Order as another reason to
require Lightyear to adopt a maintenance program for outside plant facilities and
equipment. On the basis that staff will not recommend approval of the requested rule
waiver, Lightyear withdraws that request, noting, however, that Lightyear has no current
plans, regardless of the fate of UNE-, to construct or maintain any outside plant
facilities or equipment.
Ms. Jean D. Jewell

(e)Title 41 , Chapter 2, Rule 105 and 602.01: Customer Notice
In its application, Lightyear requested a waiver of the rule requiring provision of local
telephone directories. In its data request, staff referenced Commission Order Number
26665 , and stated that a waiver request is unnecessary. Therefore, Lightyear withdraws
its request for a waiver of this portion of the rule.
(f)Reporting Requirements
In its application, Lightyear also requested a waiver of reporting requirements applicable
to ILECs but which would not be applicable to CLECs. In its data request, staff stated
that no such reporting requirements are imposed on CLECs and therefore no waiver is
necessary. Lightyear therefore withdraws this request for a general waiver.
Modifications to illustrative tariff
The requested modifications to Lightyear s illustrative tariff have been made and are included
with this filing. Based on correspondence with staff, an exculpatory clause has been inserted in
to the provisions on pages 80 and 81 regarding indemnification in the event of directory
assistance or directory publication errors, in lieu of deleting the indemnification language.
Please acknowledge receipt of this filing by date-stamping the extra copy of this cover letter and
returning it to me in the self-addressed stamped envelope provided for that purpose.
Any questions regarding this filing may be directed to my attention at (407) 740-3004 or via
emai1 at morton(~Jminc.com. Thank you for your assistance in this matter.
Sincerely,
\:,~ J crv-tu--

Undertaking of the Company, (Cont'
1.4 Liability of the Company
The included tariff language does not constitute a determination by the Commission
that a limitation of liability imposed by the Company should be upheld in a court of
law. Acceptance for filing by the Commission recognizes that it is a court'
responsibility to adjudicate negligence and consequential damage claims. It is also
the court's responsibility to determine the validity of the exculpatory clause.
The provisions of this section of this rule do not apply to errors and omissions caused
by willful misconduct, fraudulent conduct or violations of laws by the Company.
In the event an error or omission is caused by the gross negligence of the Company,
the liability of the Company shall be limited to and in no event exceed the sum of
$10 000.
Except as provided in Paragraphs (A) and (B) of this Rule, the liability of the
Company for damages arising out of mistakes, omissions, interruptions, delays, errors
or defects in any of the services or private line, alphabetical directory listings
(excluding the use of bold type), and all other services shall in no event exceed an
amount equal to the pro rata charges to the Customer for the periods during which the
services or facilities area affected by the mistake, omission, interruption, delay, error
or defect, provided, however, that where any mistake, omission, interruption, delay,
error or defect of anyone service or facility affects or diminishes the value of any
other service, said liability shall include such diminution, but in no event shall exceed
the total amount of the charges to the Customer for all services or facilities for the
period affected by the mistake, omission, interruption, delay, error or defect.
The Company shall not be liable for errors in transmitting, receiving or delivering
oral messages by telephone over the lines of the Company and connecting utilities.
The Company shall have the right to make necessary repairs or changes in its
facilities at any time and will have the right to suspend or interrupt service
temporarily for the purpose of making the necessary repairs or changes in its system.
When such suspension or interruption of service for any appreciable period is
necessary, the Utility will give the customers who may be affected as reasonable
notice thereof as circumstances will permit, and will prosecute the work with
reasonable diligence, and, if practicable, at times that will cause the least
InCOnVenIence.

Liability of the Customer
The Customer will be liable for damages to the facilities of the Company and for all
incidental and consequential damages caused by the negligent or intentional acts or

intentional misconduct.
To the extent caused by any negligent or intentional act of the Customer as described
in (A), preceding, the Customer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the
Company from and against all claims, actions, damages, liabilities, costs and
expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, for (1) any loss, destruction or damage

Company s services for damages resulting in whole or in part from or arising in
connection with the furnishing of service under this tariff including but not limited to
mistakes, omissions, interruptions, delays errors or other defects or
misrepresentations, whether or not such other Customer or user contributed in any
way to the occurrence of the damages, unless such damages were caused solely by
the negligent or intentional act or omission of the other Customer or user and not by
any act or omission of the Company. Nothing in this tariff is intended either to limit
or to expand Customer s right to assert any claims against third parties for damages of
any nature other than those described in the preceding sentence.

that a limitation of liability imposed by the Company should be upheld in a court of
law. Acceptance for filing by the Commission recognizes that it is a court'
responsibility to adjudicate negligence and consequential damage claims. It is also
the court's responsibility to determine the validity of the exculpatory clause.
