He's So Gay ... Not That There's Anything Wrong With That: Using A Community Standard To Homogenize The Measure Of Reputational Damage In Homosexual Defamation Cases, Abigail A. Rury 2011 Michigan State University College of Law

He's So Gay ... Not That There's Anything Wrong With That: Using A Community Standard To Homogenize The Measure Of Reputational Damage In Homosexual Defamation Cases, Abigail A. Rury

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The note examines the role of the community standard in determining defamation, particularly in cases involving false claims of homosexuality. It argues that the current application of the community standard often lacks clarity and may reflect judicial biases, leading to inconsistent rulings. The note proposes reforms to enhance the accuracy and transparency of defamation analysis by adopting a contemporary community standard, similar to that used in obscenity law, which considers specific geographic and social contexts.

The Limitations And Admissibility Of Using Historical Cellular Site Data To Track The Location Of A Cellular Phone, Aaron Blank

Richmond Journal of Law & Technology

Imagine someone has just committed a crime. Shortly thereafter, law enforcement responds and quickly apprehends a suspect on the scene or close by. In order to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, the time and place of apprehending the suspect, combined with witness testimony or physical evidence, may be enough for the prosecution to meet its burden of proof.

Busting Blocks: Revisiting 47 U.S.C. §230 To Address The Lack Of Effective Legal Recourse For Wrongful Inclusion In Spam Filters, Jonathan I. Ezor

Scholarly Works

This paper discusses the growth and increasing significance of e-mail in the business and personal environment, and how unsolicited bulk commercial e-mail, also known as spam, has become a significant drain on technical and economic resources. It analyzes the statutory and self-help efforts to combat spam, with a specific focus on block lists and automated spam filters, and describes how alleged spammers have brought lawsuits in U.S. courts claiming they had been wrongfully included within block lists and filters. Finally, it describes some possible claims under U.S. law, then argues for a revision to current statutes to mandate a higher …


Teacher Cell Phone Searches In Light Of Ontario V. Quon, Joseph O. Oluwole 2011 University of Richmond

Teacher Cell Phone Searches In Light Of Ontario V. Quon, Joseph O. Oluwole

Richmond Journal of Law & Technology

Technological innovations permeate almost every inch of society. From the government and corporate workforce to family and social settings, technology seemingly knows no boundaries. Technology’s limitless reach has even crossed into the realm of public schools, where, according to teacher Lyn Newton, “[s]chool principals are witnessing more and more cell phone use by their teachers.” Teachers, like other cell phone users, use cell phones not only for making phone calls, but also for taking pictures and texting, which has landed some teachers in trouble for inappropriate communications. Indeed, the sexting wave has not eluded teachers.

Innovation, Entrepreneurship, And The Information Age, Philip J. Weiser 2011 University of Colorado Law School

Innovation, Entrepreneurship, And The Information Age, Philip J. Weiser

Publications

This Essay makes the case for antitrust enforcement as a critical part of innovation policy and catalyzing entrepreneurship. It begins by explaining how innovation and entrepreneurship are drivers of economic growth and pillars of any effective economic strategy. With respect to antitrust enforcement and competition policy, it highlights the role that antitrust can play in opening up markets and addressing bottleneck monopolies, such as those at issue in the Microsoft and AT&T cases. It also explains that the most nettlesome challenge of such enforcement is devising appropriate and effective remedies, suggesting a few strategies to address that challenge.


Comcast/Nbcu: The Fcc Provides A Roadmap For Vertical Merger Analysis, Jonathan Baker 2011 American University Washington College of Law

Comcast/Nbcu: The Fcc Provides A Roadmap For Vertical Merger Analysis, Jonathan Baker

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

The FCC’s analysis of the Comcast-NBCU transaction fills a gap in the contemporary treatment of vertical mergers by providing a roadmap for courts and litigants addressing the possibility of anticompetitive exclusion. The FCC identified the factors any judicial or administrative tribunal would likely consider today in analyzing whether a vertical merger would lead to anticompetitive input or customer foreclosure, and a range of economic methods potentially relevant to applying that template to the facts of a transaction. Notwithstanding the difference between administrative adjudication under a public interest standard and judicial decision-making under the Clayton Act, the legal framework and economic …

Opinions, Implications, And Confusions, Leonard M. Niehoff 2011 University of Michigan Law School

Opinions, Implications, And Confusions, Leonard M. Niehoff

Articles

The law of defamation is haunted by ancient common law principles, such as the distinction between libel per se and libel per quad, that contribute nothing to our current jurisprudence beyond providing opportunities for misunderstanding and perplexity. Unfortunately, more contemporary doctrines have further complicated the field by sowing fresh confusions. This article explores two such doctrines-the principle that a defamation claim cannot rest upon an opinion and the principle that a defamation claim can rest upon unstated implications- and suggests that there are troublesome contradictions both within them and between them. In short, this article respectfully proposes that these two …
