The Evolution Of The Digital Millennium Copyright Act; Changing Interpretations Of The Dmca And Future Implications For Copyright Holders, Hillary A. Henderson
Hillary A Henderson
Copyright law rewards an artificial monopoly to individual authors for their creations. This reward is based on the belief that, by granting authors the exclusive right to reproduce their works, they receive an incentive and means to create, which in turn advances the welfare of the general public by “promoting the progress of science and useful arts.” Copyright protection subsists . . . in original works of authorship fixed in any tangible medium of expression, now known or later developed, from which they can be perceived, reproduced, or otherwise communicated, either directly or with the aid of a machine or …
Challenging Hospital Vbac Bans Through Tort Liability, Indra Lusero
Challenging Hospital Vbac Bans Through Tort Liability, Indra Lusero
Indra Lusero
With millions of women experiencing primary c-sections every year, millions more face repeat surgery for subsequent births. Because of hospital bans on vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC), many of these women will have no option to give birth vaginally. Women are looking for remedies to this invasion of their right to informed consent. This article explores the two main avenues for making a torts claim against the hospital for such a ban: corporate negligence and vicarious liability. Through an exploration of the relevant case law in these areas, the significant opportunities and challenges of tort remedies for hospital VBAC bans …
Coase V. Pigou: A Still Difficult Debate, Enrico Baffi
Coase V. Pigou: A Still Difficult Debate, Enrico Baffi
enrico baffi
This paper examines the positions of Coase and Pigou about the problem of the externalities. From the reading of their most two important works it appears that Coase has a more relevant preference for a evaluation of efficiency at the total, while Pigou, with some exception, is convinced that is possible to reach marginal efficiency through taxes or responsibility. It’s interesting that Coase, who has elaborated the famous theorem, is convinced that is not possible to reach the efficiency at the margin every time and that sometimes is necessary a valuation at the total, that tells us which solution is …
Cleaning Up Oil Spill Liability Through Commercial Quasi-Property Rights, Troy S. Brown
Cleaning Up Oil Spill Liability Through Commercial Quasi-Property Rights, Troy S. Brown
Troy S Brown
The pure economic loss rule, embodied in Robins Dry Dock v. Flint, has denied many individuals and businesses who commercially use and rely upon oil spill damaged land and resources, because their economic losses were unaccompanied by physical injury. In passing the Oil Pollution Act of 1990, the U.S. Congress sought to ameliorate the harshness of the pure economic loss rule by creating §2702(b)(2)(E), a cause of action to recover such economic losses, even in the absence of a recognized proprietary interest in an affected resource. However, the persistence of the pure economic loss rule, the Oil Pollution Act’s vague …

The Problem Of Internalization Of Social Costs And The Ideas Of Ronadl Coase, Enrico Baffi
enrico baffi
In this paper, I try to show that, although some arguments elaborated by Coase do not have a great practical importance, and that it seems that the most important one against a system of remedies for each externalities (if we are able to define this concept) is difficult to create, Coase has understood many problems that they have been at the basis of later studies in tort and property law; but, what is more important here, is to underline that a system of remedies for every externalities have been refused by eminent scholars after Coase The work of the English …
Unanswered Questions Of A Minority People In International Law: A Comparative Study Between Southern Cameroons & South Sudan, Bernard Sama Mr
Unanswered Questions Of A Minority People In International Law: A Comparative Study Between Southern Cameroons & South Sudan, Bernard Sama Mr
Bernard Sama
The month July of 2011 marked the birth of another nation in the World. The distressful journey of a minority people under the watchful eyes of the international community finally paid off with a new nation called the South Sudan . As I watched the South Sudanese celebrate independence on 9 July 2011, I was filled with joy as though they have finally landed. On a promising note, I read the UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon saying “[t]ogether, we welcome the Republic of South Sudan to the community of nations. Together, we affirm our commitment to helping it meet its …

New Governance In The Teeth Of Human Frailty: Lessons From Financial Regulation, Cristie L. Ford
New Governance In The Teeth Of Human Frailty: Lessons From Financial Regulation, Cristie L. Ford
Cristie L. Ford
New Governance scholarship has made important theoretical and practical contributions to a broad range of regulatory arenas, including securities and financial markets regulation. In the wake of the global financial crisis, question about the scope of possibilities for this scholarship are more pressing than ever. Is new governance a full-blown alternative to existing legal structures, or is it a useful complement? Are there essential preconditions to making it work, or can a new governance strategy improve any decision making structure? If there are essential preconditions, what are they? Is new governance “modular” – that is, does it still confer benefits …

Recent Private International Law Developments Before The Supreme Court Of Canada, Antonin I. Pribetic
Antonin I. Pribetic
A trilogy of interesting cases involving private international law recently wended their way to the Supreme Court of Canada: (1) King v. Drabinsky (an Ontario case addressing the applicability of the Charter in respect of the enforcement of a foreign judgment); (2) Teck Cominco Metals Ltd. v. Lloyd's Underwriters (a British Columbia case involving declaratory relief in the context of parallel proceedings and forum non conveniens); and (3) Yugraneft v. Rexx Management Corporation (an Alberta case which affirmed that the two-year limitation period under s.3 of Alberta's Limitations Act, governs when a party seeks the recognition and enforcement in Alberta …
The Tort Of Betrayal Of Trust, Caroline Forell, Anna Sortun
The Tort Of Betrayal Of Trust, Caroline Forell, Anna Sortun
Caroline A Forell
Fiduciary betrayal is a serious harm. When the fiduciary is a doctor or a lawyer, and the entrustor is a patient or client, this harm frequently goes unremedied. Betrayals arise out of disloyalty and conflicts of interest where the lawyer or doctor puts his or her interest above that of his or her client or patient. It causes dignitary harm that is different from the harm flowing from negligent malpractice. Nevertheless, courts, concerned with overdeterrence, have for the most part refused to allow a separate claim for betrayal. In this Article, we suggest that betrayal deserves a remedy and propose …

¡30,000 Dólares Por Daños Morales En Un Divorcio! De Cómo El "Daño Al Proyecto De Vida" Continúa Inflando Peligrosamente Los Resarcimientos, Leysser L. Leon
Leysser L. León
De un tiempo a esta parte, los tribunales civiles de Lima vienen concediendo resarcimientos a ciegas, sobre la base del artículo 345-A del Código Civil peruano, en el cual se obliga al magistrado, a "velar por la estabilidad del cónyuge perjudicado" en los casos de separación de hecho, ya señalando una "indemnización", ya ordenando la "adjudicación preferente de bienes de la sociedad conyugal".
En este comentario de jurisprudencia se explica por qué es equivocado asociar la "indemnización" referida en dicha norma con la responsabilidad civil, y se brindan elementos para su correcto enfoque como importante manifestación de la solidaridad familiar.
