The Rule Of Law And Commercial Litigation In Myanmar, Alec Christie Dec 2000

The Rule Of Law And Commercial Litigation In Myanmar, Alec Christie

Washington International Law Journal

After nearly thirty years of self imposed isolation, Myanmar has reemerged as a significant potential destination for foreign investment. One of the key attractions of Myanmar as a destination for foreign investment is its legal system and historical commitment to the rule of law. With ASEAN membership and increasing levels of foreign investment in Myanmar, use of its legal system by foreign investors and their counsel has grown. The aim of this article is to outline, for both investors and legal professionals in other countries throughout the region, Myanmar's legal system and its practical operation in the area of commercial …

Application Of The Uniform Commercial Code To Option Contracts For The Sale Of Goods, And Implying Promises To Find Sufficient Consideration: Why And How The North Carolina Supreme Court Got It Wrong In Fordham V. Eason, James T. Newman Jr. Oct 2000

Application Of The Uniform Commercial Code To Option Contracts For The Sale Of Goods, And Implying Promises To Find Sufficient Consideration: Why And How The North Carolina Supreme Court Got It Wrong In Fordham V. Eason, James T. Newman Jr.

Campbell Law Review

The North Carolina Supreme Court rarely ventures into cases involving contract disputes. However, in Fordham v. Eason, the court granted discretionary review to decide which of two logging companies had title to certain timber that each company had separately bargained for. In its analysis, the court's discussion of consideration was incomplete. Further, the court erred by refusing to apply the Uniform Commercial Code to an option contract for the sale of timber. This article explores the mistakes in the Fordham opinion and examines why the court will probably have to reevaluate its decision at some point in the future.

Deconstructing The Debate Over State Taxation Of Electronic Commerce, Walter Hellerstein Jul 2000

Deconstructing The Debate Over State Taxation Of Electronic Commerce, Walter Hellerstein

Scholarly Works

Elsewhere on these pages, the distinguished economist Charles McLure begins his contribution to the debate over taxation of electronic commerce by observing that “America is focusing on the wrong issues in debating the taxation of electronic commerce ....” He proceeds to provide a fundamental critique of the states' existing sales tax regimes and he lays out a roadmap for radical reform of the system that would, in the course of curing the basic defects in the existing state sales tax structure, incidentally resolve many of the issues that currently dominate the debate over taxing electronic commerce. I do not disagree …


Electronic Billboards Along The Information Superhighway: Liability Under The Lanham Act For Using Trademarks To Key Internet Banner Ads, Christine Galbraith Davik Jul 2000

Electronic Billboards Along The Information Superhighway: Liability Under The Lanham Act For Using Trademarks To Key Internet Banner Ads, Christine Galbraith Davik

Faculty Publications

With almost one billion web pages on the Internet today, a search engine is a necessity at times. But search engines are also for-profit ventures and the financial success of these sites hinges on advertising revenue. One of the ways in which these sites generate income is by selling “keywords” to advertisers. Although there has been only one judicial decision – Playboy Enterprises, Inc. v. Netscape Communications – involving banner ads keyed to trademarks, it will undoubtedly not be the last. This article argues that despite the invisible nature of this unauthorized trademark use, the common practice of keying a …

A Leap Forward: Why States Should Ratify The Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act, David A.P. Neboyskey May 2000

A Leap Forward: Why States Should Ratify The Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act, David A.P. Neboyskey

Federal Communications Law Journal

The Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act (UCITA) has been presented to the states for their ratification. Patterned after the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC), UCITA began as an addition to the UCC, but differences between the statutes required UCITA to emerge as a separate entity. The National Conference of Commissioners of Uniform State Laws (NCCUSL) drafted UCITA and approved the Act in Summer 1999. The Act now awaits approval by state legislatures. This Comment analyzes UCITA and argues that the states should ratify the Act. The Comment favorably compares the UCC and UCITA. The UCC follows the principle of "freedom of …

Commodifying Justice For Global Free Trade: The Proposed Hague Judgments Convention, Vaughan Black Apr 2000

Commodifying Justice For Global Free Trade: The Proposed Hague Judgments Convention, Vaughan Black

Osgoode Hall Law Journal

A notable omission from the legal apparatus for international free trade is a multilateral agreement on court jurisdiction and enforcement of foreign country judgments. However, negotiations toward such an international convention are in progress. This paper explores the background to those discussions. It examines the current draft of the proposed judgments convention with particular reference to the way in which implementation of that draft would affect Canadians engaged in the practice of international commercial litigation. It concludes with a discussion of current sticking points in the negotiations, and with commentary on the judgment enforcement scene and the implications of failure …

The Legal Environment For Electronic Cash In Japan, Shu Hamba Mar 2000

The Legal Environment For Electronic Cash In Japan, Shu Hamba

Maurer Theses and Dissertations

Recently, people have begun to hear the phrase "electronic money". However, it is not easy to define electronic money because there are so many varieties of electronic products that are called electronic money. Electronic money has possibility to substitute all functions cash has and to change forms of settlement dramatically. However, it may cause a lot of new legal issues and may demand totally new legal structure to regulate it.

The thesis provides classification and features of electronic money then focus on certain type of electronic money. The thesis mainly explores several issues that may affect issuance of electronic money …


The Meaning Of "Agreement" Under The Sherman Act: Thoughts From The "Facilitating Practices" Experience, George A. Hay Mar 2000

The Meaning Of "Agreement" Under The Sherman Act: Thoughts From The "Facilitating Practices" Experience, George A. Hay

Cornell Law Faculty Publications

While the Economic Policy Office was involved in a number of interesting and important matters during the six years I was Director (1973–1979), for the most part my involvement in individual investigations and cases was vicarious, i.e., supervising, supporting, and advising the staff economists assigned to the particular matter. The one major exception – a matter in which I became personally involved in an intensive way – was the General Electric (GE)-Westinghouse price signaling matter. In what follows, I provide a brief summary of what transpired in the GE-Westinghouse matter and then trace through some of the longer term consequences …

Electronic Commerce And The State And Federal Tax Bases, J. Clifton Fleming Jr. Mar 2000

Electronic Commerce And The State And Federal Tax Bases, J. Clifton Fleming Jr.

BYU Law Review

The federal income tax does not apply to profits generated by pure mail order sales originating from outside the United States, and state and local consumption taxes are effectively inapplicable to pure mail order sales originating from outside the taxing jurisdiction. These conclusions seem fully applicable to federal taxation of income from sales that are initially solicited through Internet advertising and then transacted over the Internet between a customer in the United States and an out-of-country seller's out-of-country website. Similar conclusions are also, arguably, applicable in the case of state and local consumption taxes. Extension of the mail order tax …
