In the recently proposed dark left-right gauge model of particle interactions, the left-handed fermion doublet ({nu},e){sub L} is connected to its right-handed counterpart (n,e){sub R} through a scalar bidoublet, but {nu}{sub L} couples to n{sub R} only through {phi}{sub 1}{sup 0} which has no vacuum expectation value. The usual R parity, i.e. R=(-){sup 3B+L+2j}, can be defined for this nonsupersymmetric model so that both n and {Phi}{sub 1} are odd together with W{sub R}{sup {+-}.} The lightest n is thus a viable dark-matter candidate (scotino). Here we explore the phenomenology associated with the SU(2){sub R} gauge group of this model, which allows it to appear at the TeV energy scale. The exciting possibility of Z{sup '{yields}}8 charged leptons is discussed.
