It all got reversed eventually after massive negative press coverage. I don't think Microsoft took "ownership" of the domain, but simply got the court to make them the nameservers, though I may be wrong.
I do feel like the only way this request was granted was due to total ignorance on the part of the court of anything about how the internet works.
It's a completely reasonable request that has been granted countless of times now.
