UIC Law Open Access Faculty Scholarship

Is it reasonable for a physician to condition treatment upon the patient’s execution of an arbitration agreement? Is such an agreement enforceable? Is such an agreement medically ethical? This paper will address these topics (and others) in an effort to determine whether a treatment conditioned upon the execution of an arbitration agreement covering medical liability claims is consistent with, and should be a defensible component of the physician-patient relationship.

Navigating Cybersquatting Enforcement In The Expanding Internet, 13 J. Marshall Rev. Intell. Prop. L. 321 (2014), Jordan A. Arnot Jan 2014

Navigating Cybersquatting Enforcement In The Expanding Internet, 13 J. Marshall Rev. Intell. Prop. L. 321 (2014), Jordan A. Arnot

UIC Review of Intellectual Property Law

It has always been a considerable task to police something as vast at the Internet for trademark violations and abuse. As the Internet develops with the ongoing launch of hundreds of new generic Top-Level Domains, so does the host of enforcement options available to those seeking to protect the value of trademarks and other intellectual property. This article outlines seven criteria to consider when selecting a remedy, or combination of remedies. The traditional cease and desist letter is still a viable and effective option, and so, of course, is litigation. These tools were greatly enhanced in 1999 when the Internet …


Selling Sex: Analyzing The Improper Use Defense To Contract Enforcement Through The Lens Of Carroll V. Beardon, 59 Clev. St. L. Rev. 693 (2011), Julie M. Spanbauer Jan 2011

Selling Sex: Analyzing The Improper Use Defense To Contract Enforcement Through The Lens Of Carroll V. Beardon, 59 Clev. St. L. Rev. 693 (2011), Julie M. Spanbauer

UIC Law Open Access Faculty Scholarship

The 1963 decision of the Supreme Court of Montana in Carroll v. Beardon occupies less than three full pages in the Pacific Reporter and involves a simple real estate transaction in which a "madam" sold a house used for prostitution to another "madam." The opinion is the last in a long line of cases which speak specifically to the issue of enforcement of facially legitimate contracts that in some manner involve or are related to prostitution. It is commonly cited in treatises and hornbooks as representative of the movement by courts toward enforcement of such contracts under the law of …


Letting The Arbitrator Decide Unconscionability Challenges, 26 Ohio St. J. On Disp. Resol. 1 (2011), Karen H. Cross Jan 2011

Letting The Arbitrator Decide Unconscionability Challenges, 26 Ohio St. J. On Disp. Resol. 1 (2011), Karen H. Cross

UIC Law Open Access Faculty Scholarship

This article examines how courts are allocating jurisdictional questions relating to unconscionability to the arbitrator, and assesses the approach of U.S. courts to this issue from a historical and comparative perspective. The U.S. allocation rule is evolving toward one of deference to the arbitrator, allowing the arbitrator to make an initial determination of whether there is an enforceable agreement to arbitrate. As a matter of timing, the U.S. approach is becoming more similar to that of France. Such an approach, especially in the commercial sphere, has the potential to be relatively efficient and consistent. But in the context of mandatory …

Part II of the paper offers an overview of the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (“UDRP”) process, and its rules regarding possible court proceedings. Part III examines China’s …

This paper looks at the growing presence of online alternative dispute resolution in the commercial setting, with the eventual goal of making suggestions to improve current online systems.

The first section of this paper provides a succinct review of the history of online dispute resolution. The focus of the section is two-pronged. The first prong discusses how technological …

A Normative Critique Of Private Domain Name Dispute Resolution, 22 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 625 (2004), J.R. Hildenbrand

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law

In recent years, much has been made of the rapid expansion and tremendous commercial potential of the Internet. As such, domain names that contain or imply an entities trademarked name have become extremely valuable to these entities. The difficulty, however, is balancing the rights of the trademark owners with Internet users within the burgeoning commercial environment. This comment examines the balance between the Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) and traditional trademark protection. It discusses several persuasive documents including the International Trademark Association’s 1997 White Paper and the United States Department of Commerce’s Green and White papers. The comment further develops …

An Island In The Net: Domain Naming And English Administrative Law, 15 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 493 (1997), Mark Gould

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law

The United Kingdom's system for assigning domain names is privately run and follows some Internet standard for assignments and revocations. However, there are some internal restrictions that reflect the policy of accommodating existing domains and avoiding DNS lock up, which might occur with badly configured domain name servers. Nominet does not easily fit into definitions of a private function since it does have some public characteristics. In addition, no British counterpart to the Internet Service OC exists. The policies followed by Nominet in allocating domain names reflects conventions established prior to its existence. These policies do not appear to take …
