Admissibility Of "Day In The Life" Films In Virginia, Mahlon G. Funk Jr., Harry J. Hicks Iii Jan 1984

Admissibility Of "Day In The Life" Films In Virginia, Mahlon G. Funk Jr., Harry J. Hicks Iii

University of Richmond Law Review

In recent years, audiovisual technology has taken an increasingly prominent position in courtroom procedures. Defense attorneys have traditionally introduced motion pictures of allegedly injured plaintiffs caught in some intense physical activity. More recently, courts have allowed the use of audiovisual depositions, which afford scrutiny of the characteristics and mannerisms of deposed witnesses. In the midst of this evidentiary trend, plaintiffs' counsel now frequently seek admission of "day in the life" films. Such films purport to depict for the jury in graphic detail the effects that a severe personal injury can have on the plaintiff's life. Admission of these films is …


Cable Television Update-Capital Cities Cable, Inc. V. Crisp: Federalism And Frustration Of Powers, Steven J. Keeler Jan 1984

Cable Television Update-Capital Cities Cable, Inc. V. Crisp: Federalism And Frustration Of Powers, Steven J. Keeler

University of Richmond Law Review

The Supreme Court of the United States recently stunned the cable television industry with its decision in Capital Cities Cable, Inc. v. Crisp. The immediate result of the ruling was to preempt a state statute prohibiting the advertisement of certain alcoholic beverages; however, the decision's potential impact could be much broader. The Court unanimously held cable television regulation to be the "exclusive domain" of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and an "area that the Commission has explicitly pre-empted." Thus, the decision extends broad regulatory authority to the FCC at the expense of local control.

Board Of Regents Of University Of Oklahoma V. National Collegiate Athletic Association, Application Of The Per Se Rule To Price-Fixing Agreements, Robert M. Pfeifer

University of Richmond Law Review

In Board of Regents of University of Oklahoma v. National Collegiate Athletic Association, the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed a lower court ruling that invalidated regulation of college football television contracts by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). This decision left colleges and universities free to contract for the sale of broadcast rights to their football games. The United States District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma held that the NCAA television foot- ball plan and network contracts constituted an illegal price-fixing agreement and thus were per se violations of section 1 of the Sherman Anti-Trust Act. The …


The Legality Of Ticket Tie-Ins In Intercollegiate Athletics, Arthur D. Austin Jan 1980

The Legality Of Ticket Tie-Ins In Intercollegiate Athletics, Arthur D. Austin

University of Richmond Law Review

The dynamics of operating a "major" intercollegiate sports program have a tenuous nexus with academic ideals. Intercollegiate athletics is now a big business, dominated by the balance sheet of gate receipts, T.V. revenues, and talent recruiting. The best high school athletes are aggressively recruited for their physical prowess to play for teams that perform before large crowds-and frequently a national television audience-in gigantic stadiums and field houses. In many instances coaches and players gain national recognition and reverence unequaled by professors, poets, or Nobel prize winners. Yet the sponsors of these sports extravaganzas are academic institutions who by charter and …
