Section 10 Forbearance: Asking The Right Questions To Get The Right Answers, George S. Ford, Lawrence J. Spiwak 2014 The Catholic University of America, Columbus School of Law

Section 10 Forbearance: Asking The Right Questions To Get The Right Answers, George S. Ford, Lawrence J. Spiwak

CommLaw Conspectus: Journal of Communications Law and Technology Policy (1993-2015)

The Telecommunications Act of 1996 aimed to “provide for a pro-competitive, de-regulatory national policy framework designed to accelerate rapidly private sector deployment of advanced telecommunications and information technologies and services to all Americans….” Key to the Federal Communication Commission’s ability to satisfy this deregulatory mandate is Section 10 of the 1996 Act which provides the agency with express legal authority to forbear from enforcing certain portions of the Communications Act. In this paper, we use the agency’s Phoenix Forbearance Order as a template for outlining how the Commission can improve its forbearance analysis. Our analysis focuses on forbearance from the …

Copyright, Fair Use And Author’S Rights Ii (October/November 2014), Paul Royster

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Libraries: Presentations

Copyright is a battlefield, and an author’s control over his/her own work can easily become collateral damage or go missing in action.

In this session you will learn more about U.S. Copyright Law, Author’s Rights, and protecting your Intellectual Property. Faculty members Paul Royster and Sue Gardner will speak on Copyright, Fair Use, and Author Rights. You …

Sexting Prosecutions: Minors As A Protected Class From Child Pornography Charges, Sarah Thompson 2014 University of Michigan Law School

Sexting Prosecutions: Minors As A Protected Class From Child Pornography Charges, Sarah Thompson

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform Caveat

"Firt love is only a little foolishness and a lot of curiosity." -- George Bernard Shaw Teenagers will explore their sexuality; this is no new phenomenon. However, the ways that teens are exploring their curiosity is changing with technology. This trend has serious repercussions for teens, society, and the law. ‘Sexting’—defined as the act of sending sexually explicit photographs or messages via cell phone—is one recently-developed means of sexual exploration. The practice overlaps with the production, distribution, and possession of child pornography that is banned by both state and federal law. Due to the overlap, minors have been prosecuted under …

Market Definition And The Economic Effects Of Special Access Price Regulation, T. Randolph Beard, Lawrence J. Spiwak Esq., George S. Ford PhD 2014 The Catholic University of America, Columbus School of Law

Market Definition And The Economic Effects Of Special Access Price Regulation, T. Randolph Beard, Lawrence J. Spiwak Esq., George S. Ford Phd

CommLaw Conspectus: Journal of Communications Law and Technology Policy (1993-2015)

Market definition is an essential ingredient to competitive and regulatory analysis. Yet, there is significant disparity regarding the definition of the relevant geographic market for high-capacity circuits, commonly referred to as Special Access services. Given the present debate over expanding price regulation in this sector, the importance of market definition on the expected economic effects of regulation is worth evaluating. In this article, we demonstrate that if geographic markets are “location specific” and supplied by a monopolist as the proponents of regulation claim, then price regulation reduces economic welfare in all instances. That is, even with monopoly supply, regulation offers …
