The Law Applicable To Naval Mine Warfare In A Non-International Armed Conflict, Rob Mclaughlin Oct 2014

The Law Applicable To Naval Mine Warfare In A Non-International Armed Conflict, Rob Mclaughlin

International Law Studies

There are very few instruments and very few cases, which describe how the law in relation to naval mine warfare applies within non-international armed conflict contexts. Additionally, since 1945, there has been relatively limited State practice. Working out what the law applicable to naval mine warfare in NIAC situations might look like today thus requires some recourse to the pre-World War II scheme designed to accommodate and characterize maritime activity by rebels, insurgents, and belligerents in conflict with their State.

Mega, Digital Storage Lockers, And The Dmca: Will Innovation Be Stifled By Fears Of Piracy?, Ali V. Mirsaidi

Duke Law & Technology Review

Megaupload—one of Dotcom’s many peer-to-peer sharing sites—was the center of controversy, as it allowed users to upload and share all sorts of files, including copyrighted material.

Like other well-known cloud-sharing services such as Dropbox and Google Drive, MEGA allows users to …

Drakes Bay Oyster Co. V. Jewell, Tristan T. Riddell

Public Land & Resources Law Review

In Drakes Bay the United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit ruled that language within appropriations legislation aimed specifically at the expiration of the Drakes Bay Oyster Company’s Reservation of Use and Occupancy within Point Reyes National Seashore provided the Secretary of the Interior discretion whether to issue a new special use permit for oyster farming.

The Ninth Circuit held that they had jurisdiction to review the …
