An Overview Of The Virginia Ucita, Carlyle C. Ring Jr.
Richmond Journal of Law & Technology
Virginia has taken a strong and important leadership in establishing rules for the Information Highway through the Joint Committee on Technology and Science (JCOTS) and Delegate Joe T. May. Without the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act (UCITA) no established rules exist in common law for the Information Highway, which means that each judge must create the rules in each case as it arises.

Over the last few years, the problems attendant to software licensing regulation have occupied an important position in the minds of legislators at the federal, state and local levels. In the early nineties, the National Conference of Commissioners for Uniform State Laws (NCCUSL) recognized the potential for licensing problems presented by the use of computer software in the national arena as well as on the Internet and saw a clear need for regulations that would transcend state boundaries. In 1999, as a result of years of planning and careful drafting, NCCUSL promulgated the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act (UCITA) in …
Internet Service Provider's Liability For Copyright Infringement- How To Clear The Misty Indian Perspective, V.K. Unni
Richmond Journal of Law & Technology
Only a fool would question the role and relevance of Internet Service Providers in promoting the Internet.

The Indian Information Technology Act 2000 ("The Act"), enacted with much hype, is almost silent on …

The Supreme Court has long held that a patent's claim, more so than any …
