Join us for this seminar to look at how online conduct can lead towards lawsuits and how to deal with them. Online torts deal with the interactions between consumers, companies, and users all controlled by user agreements, but how do these contracts affect which jurisdictions law can be applied, where lawsuits can be filed, the remedies, and arbitration? During this seminar we will dive into what laws can be applied and how to address these cases, how intellectual property and probate law come into play, and how laws have evolved to address online property rights.
Topics:
How Common Law can be applied to online tortious activity
Immunity under the Communication and Decency Act
Statutory Civil Remedies
Delaware State Laws: Civil Liability and Online Property Rights
