寻找在原告的社会网络没有合理的私隐期望, 法院强迫授权给当前和历史的内容披露 : 电子发现法

Romano v. Steelcase, 公司, 2010 轮候册 3703242 (纽约. 燮. 克拉. 七个. 21, 2010)

Defendant sought to discover plaintiff’s “current and historical Facebook and MySpace pages and accounts”, including deleted information, on the belief that information posted there was inconsistent with her injury claims.  The court granted the motion, despite plaintiff’s privacy concerns, upon finding the information was material and relevant and that plaintiff had no reasonable expectation of privacy, and because the defendant’s need for access outweighed plaintiff’s privacy concerns.

Following defendant’s review of the public portions of plaintiff’s MySpace and Facebook pages which contained evidence of plaintiff’s active lifestyle, including travel “during the time period she claim[ed] that her injuries prevent[ed] such activity,” defendant sought to depose plaintiff or otherwise obtain discovery on the issue to no avail.  Defendant then moved to obtain access to her Facebook and MySpace accounts, which plaintiff opposed.

律师事务所: 司法部越来越多地使用旅游法“起诉商业贿赂 – 腐败电流 – 华尔街日报

Along with the increased enforcement to combat corruption using the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, DLA Piper said in a client alert that the Justice Department has been using the Travel Act as a weapon to police commercial bribery.

Using the Travel Act as a weapon against corporate corruption greatly expands the scope and regulatory power of the Justice Department, the paper says. The 50-year old law, enacted to prosecute money-laundering gamblers and mobsters, bans the use of any communication in interstate commerce to facilitate the “carrying on of unlawful activity,” which it defines as bribery, 除其他事项.

OpenOffice.org离弃甲骨文, 形成新的基础和叉 | ZDNet的

It comes as no surprise that longtime backers of OpenOffice.org are taking control over the open source project from Oracle, its new owner.

周二, the OpenOffice.org community announced the formation of the Document Foundation and the re-release of OpenOffice code under a new brand name — LibreOffice.

OpenOffice was originally founded and sponsored by Sun. Oracle acquired Sun and its OpenOffice assets earlier this year.

The creation of the Document Foundation is backed by leading Linux distributors Red Hat, Novell, 谷歌 (机器人) and Canonical as well as many international concerns and nations, including Germany, 意大利, Brazil and France — hence the name LibreOffice.

The move comes just weeks after Oracle announced it would stop development on another open source project it acquired as part of Sun — OpenSolaris. (a new entity known as Illumos has assumed control of the open source project).

当时, I asked Oracle if it also intended to scrap OpenOffice development but the official response was ‘No Comment.”

Michael Meeks, a distinguished engineer at Novell who is very active with OpenOffice.org, said he was initially lulled into the view that Oracle would become a strong force in open source development following its purchase of Sun but said that hasn’t panned out. “

His views weren’t all that different when Sun had control over OpenOffice. 仍, the new ownership exacerbates his concerns. “Copyright assignment discourages external contributions, and that current control of the project inhibits developer initiative,” Meeks said in a recent press release.

外国股东越来越告知呆在美国出. 法院 – 法律博客 – 华尔街日报

越来越多, federal courts are rolling up the welcome mat when it comes to securities suits by foreign investors.

That’s the theme of this WSJ article today that looks at the impact of the Supreme Court’s recent ruling in Morrison v. National Australia Bank.  The ruling concluded that Australian investors who purchased shares of an Australian bank should not be able to bring a securities fraud suit in U.S. 法院.

That holding has been a boon to multinational companies, as courts have interpreted Morrison to bar fraud claims by any investor — either from the U.S. or overseas — who purchased stock on a foreign exchange. Courts have dismissed  claims against Credit Suisse Group, Alston SA, and others in light of Morrison.

The ruling could also save millions of dollars for the likes of BP, which faces securities suits over the Gulf oil spill, and Toyota, which faces securities claims arising from its handling of sudden acceleration claims. Some of the plaintiffs in each case purchased their stock overseas, so they could be out of luck.

Law.com – The Lawyers of the ‘福布斯’ 400

Forbes released its annual list of the 400 wealthiest Americans last week and according to our painstaking analysis, 37 of those who made the cut are law school graduates. While most of them didn’t accumulate their fortunes in the legal trade, Forbes does identify Houston’s Joe Jamail as the nation’s richest practicing attorney.

Below are some of those that gave up billing by the hour in order to make billions. (Feel free to let us know of any omissions in the comments section.)

For sheer quantity of wealthy lawyers per family, the Pritzkers merit special recognition. Though there is friction between some of the heirs to the Hyatt/Marmon Group family fortune, one thing that five of them apparently agree on is that a law degree is something worth having.

Thomas (tied for No. 252 on the list with $16 billion) and Nicholas (tied for No. 385 with $1 billion) earned J.D.s from the University of Chicago, Penny (tied for No. 269 with $1.5 billion) got hers from Stanford, and Jay Robert (tied for No. 290 with $1.4 billion) and Daniel (tied for No. 308 with $1.3 billion) graduated from Northwestern.

The family has donated well to their alma maters. Chicago received $30 万美元 2002, Stanford another $10 万,今年, and Northwestern has its own Pritzker Legal Research Center. There is also a Pritzker Professor of Law position at Stanford.
