Surprises In The Skies: Resolving The Circuit Split On How Courts Should Determine Whether An "Accident" Is "Unexpected Or Unusual" Under The Montreal Convention, Ashley Tang
Washington Law Review
Article 17 of both the Montreal Convention and its predecessor, the Warsaw Convention, imposes liability onto air carriers for certain injuries and damages from “accidents” incurred by passengers during international air carriage. However, neither Convention defines the term “accident.” While the United States Supreme Court opined that, for the purposes of Article 17, an air carrier’s liability “arises only if a passenger’s injury is caused by an unexpected or unusual event or happening that is external to the passenger,” it did not explain what standards lower courts should employ to discern whether an event is “unexpected or unusual.” In 2004, …

Police Or Pirates? Reforming Washington's Civil Asset Forfeiture System, Jasmin Chigbrow
Police Or Pirates? Reforming Washington's Civil Asset Forfeiture System, Jasmin Chigbrow
Washington Law Review
Civil asset forfeiture laws permit police officers to seize property they suspect is connected to criminal activity and sell or retain the property for the police department’s use. In many states, including Washington, civil forfeiture occurs independent of any criminal case—many property owners are never charged with the offense police allege occurred. Because the government is not required to file criminal charges, property owners facing civil forfeiture lack the constitutional safeguards normally guaranteed to defendants in the criminal justice system: the right to an attorney, the presumption of innocence, the government’s burden to prove its case beyond a reasonable doubt, …

Contemporary Legal Issues Of Contract Formation Through Online System, Ayman Khaled Masadeh, Mohammad Bashayreh
UAEU Law Journal
Electronic commerce has put forth new challenges to the efforts endeavoring to unify international trade law. Most international trade conventions are designed to apply to traditional means of communication as they were drafted before the recent informational revolution. Because, in some countries, conventions supersede domestic laws, adopting the United Nations Model Law on Electronic Commerce might not completely harmonize national laws. Hence, the United Nations General Assembly adopted a new Convention on the Use of Electronic Communications in International Contracts (hereinafter the Convention) prepared by the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL). Adopted on 23 November 2005, the …

Legal View Of The Domain Names’ Registration Contract, Fayez Mohammed Al Nusair, Bashar Talal Al Momani
Legal View Of The Domain Names’ Registration Contract, Fayez Mohammed Al Nusair, Bashar Talal Al Momani
UAEU Law Journal
The importance of the Domain Names has exceeded the importance of any other distinctive mark due to its cross borders nature. The Domain Names Registration Contract is an electronic contract. Therefore, it raises several legal questions such as the effectiveness and validity of the traditional provisions of the contract, especially when it is related to consumer protection. Another question that is raised is related to the international nature of this contract, which obliges us to deal with the private international law. There is a legislative absence in this concern, thus; it is a must to study the general rules of …
Civil Liability Claims Arising From Torts In The English Law:, Younis Salah Eddin Ali
Civil Liability Claims Arising From Torts In The English Law:, Younis Salah Eddin Ali
UAEU Law Journal
The claims to civil liability in tort are considered as legal defensive methods aimed at negating or attenuating the civil liability of the defendant, if he succeeds in raising them within the action in liability in tort. It is worth-bearing in mind that these claims originated within the law of tort, which is regarded as a customary unwritten law, based upon judicial precedents issued by English courts, it is also worth-mentioning that these claims are classified in the English law into two types: the first are absent-element defenses. The second are affirmative defenses. Whereas both the Iraqi civil law, No.40of …

We’Ve Come A Long Way (Baby)! Or Have We? Evolving Intellectual Freedom Issues In The Us And Florida, L. Bryan Cooper, A.D. Beman-Cavallaro

This paper analyzes a shifting landscape of intellectual freedom (IF) in and outside Florida for children, adolescents, teens and adults. National ideals stand in tension with local and state developments, as new threats are visible in historical, legal, and technological context. Examples include doctrinal shifts, legislative bills, electronic surveillance and recent attempts to censor books, classroom texts, and reading lists.
Privacy rights for minors in Florida are increasingly unstable. New assertions of parental rights are part of a larger conservative animus. Proponents of IF can identify a lessening of ideals and standards that began after doctrinal fruition in the 1960s …
