Privacy For Social Networking, Connie Davis Powell
Privacy For Social Networking, Connie Davis Powell
University of Arkansas at Little Rock Law Review
This article begins by considering the emergence of social networks as a major medium of communication and posits that the success of social networks is attributable to their users' willingness to share their information. Next, the article considers the expectation of privacy for users of social networks and whether such expectation is reasonable. In particular, the article discusses the privacy policies and legal terms governing the use of social networks, and tracks the evolution of such terms and policies as they slowly whittle away user control over time. The article then discusses public outcry regarding the disclosure of information contrary …
Post-Mortem Right Of Publicity In Arkansas: Protecting Against The Unauthorized Use Of A Person’S Identity For Commercial Purposes, Rashauna A. Norment
Post-Mortem Right Of Publicity In Arkansas: Protecting Against The Unauthorized Use Of A Person’S Identity For Commercial Purposes, Rashauna A. Norment
University of Arkansas at Little Rock Law Review
The right of publicity protects a person against the use of his or her name, identity, likeness, or other personal characteristics for commercial purposes without consent. Many states have implemented a statutory right of publicity or have recognized the right under common law. Currently, only three states have a post-mortem right of publicity. This article discusses jurisdictions that have adopted a postmortem right of publicity, and advocates that Arkansas adopt a postmortem right of publicity for everyone.
Specifically, the article argues that traditional protection stemming from actions for invasion of a right of privacy, trademark infringement, and copyright infringement cannot …
Tort Law—Tortious Interference With Business Expectancy – A Trap For The Wary And Unwary Alike, Larry Watkins
Tort Law—Tortious Interference With Business Expectancy – A Trap For The Wary And Unwary Alike, Larry Watkins
University of Arkansas at Little Rock Law Review
Despite remaining stable and unchanged over the last decade, tortious interference has also remained problematic in Arkansas. Although tortious interference with contract in Arkansas suffers from many ailments, this note focuses on interference with business expectancy, discussing interference with contract only as necessary. Specifically, the note argues that tortious interference in Arkansas should be formally separated into two distinct rules—interference with contract and interference with business expectancy—in order to keep courts from mixing terms and standards from both rules when addressing only one cause of action. This note further proposes that the improper element of tortious interference in Arkansas should …

Securities Law—The Securities Exchange Act Of 1934—'Round And 'Round We Go: The Supreme Court Again Limits The Circumstances In Which Federal Courts May Hold Secondary Actors Liable Under Section 10(B) And Sec Rule 10b-5. Stoneridge Investment Partners, Llc V. Scientific-Atlanta, Inc., 128 S. Ct. 761 (2008)., W. Taylor Marshall
University of Arkansas at Little Rock Law Review
In Stoneridge Investment Partners, LLC v. Scientific-Atlanta, Inc., the Supreme Court addressed the plaintiffs' bar's most recent theory for recovery against secondary actors under section 10(b): "scheme liability." Rejecting the theory as beyond the scope of liability intended by Congress, the court sharply narrowed the circumstances under which courts may hold secondary actors liable under section 10(b) and SEC Rule 10b-5. Although Stoneridge clearly limits the circumstances in which federal courts may hold secondary actors liable under section 10(b) and SEC Rule 10b-5, lower federal courts have historically alleviated the harshness of the Supreme Court's approach to securities litigation by …

Darned If You Due Process, Darned If You Don't! Understanding The Due Process Dilemma For Punitive Damages In Title Vii Class Actions, Paul Edgar Harold, Tracy L. Cole
University of Arkansas at Little Rock Law Review
When Congress expanded the remedies available to Title VII the plaintiffs in the Civil Rights Act of 1991 to include compensatory and punitive damages, it did not realize that it was creating a minefield for certifying would-be Title VII class actions. The Fifth Circuit thoroughly explored many of the new pitfalls and hazards in its landmark opinion in Allison v. Citgo Petroleum Corp. This article attempts to critically evaluate a recent post-Allison trend whereby Title VII plaintiffs seeking class certification have foregone their claims for compensatory damages while still seeking punitive damages. Plaintiffs, relying on the Supreme Court's recent cases …
