Right To Privacy In The Workplace In The Information Age challenge to our legislators, judges and legal system requiring to the new technologyor the old law does not whether the newlycreated privacy issues may be http://www.publaw.com/privacy.html
Extractions: As traffic on the "information superhighway" continues to explode a number of substantive questions about the use and abuse of these information networks arises. One issue of primary concern is whether the current law provides adequate protection for the individual's right to privacy in the workplace from threats posed by computer technology, electronic eavesdropping, video and sound recording equipment, and databases filled with personal information. What are the ramifications for an employees' right to privacy in the workplace? Does an employer have the right to search an employee's computer files or review the employee's electronic mail ("E-mail")? The right to privacy plays a unique role in American law and society. Privacy, although not explicitly protected by the Constitution, is considered a core value by most Americans. It has also taken on multifarious meanings so that it no longer conveys one coherent concept. Privacy rights, guaranteeing an individual's right to a private life, find their authority in the Constitution, state constitutions, federal and state statutes, and tort law judicial decisions. When the framers wrote the Constitution and the Bill of Rights they specifically addressed that day's most pressing privacy fears: (1) that government would search one's home whenever it desired and (2) the quartering of troops in the home. The framers, however, were unable to address future changes in technology and the myriad of privacy concerns that have evolved as new technologies permeated their way into our society. Therefore one must ask whether the law protecting the right to privacy has evolved with the new technologies to ensure the vitality of the Fourth Amendment.

Extractions: ARTICLE 2B ISSUES: MEETING THE INFORMATION AGE Raymond T. Nimmer Draft Article 2B of the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) provides a template for modern commercial contracting involving information and related intellectual property rights. It contemplates a new article of the UCC dealing with licenses of information and software contracts. Part 1 of this memorandum provides background on the project. Part 2 describes several issues that merit special attention. Part 1: Evolution and Themes This project began at the recommendation of an ABA Study Committee. A subsequent study committee of NCCUSL proposed a separate article of the UCC. In 1992, representatives of the software industry objected. A second study committee was appointed. Later, a Special Committee on Software Contracts was created. This Special Committee was folded into the Article 2 Committee. The Article 2 Committee concluded that it should develop a "hub and spoke" concept for Article 2 under which licensing and sales would be treated in separate chapters of revised Article 2, both chapters being subject to general contract law principles stated in the "hub" of the revised article. During this period of discussion, industry groups concluded that treatment of contracts affecting their industries within the UCC was

YSC - Teenage Drinking Legal Issues The legal blood alcohol level was reduced, and penalties were failed to notice isthe developing law or perhaps has decided that persons under the age of 21 http://www.twpusc.org/oth_org/ysc/par_res/legissue.htm
Extractions: of Upper St. Clair Upper St. Clair, Pennsylvania YSC Home Page Parenting Resources - Drug and Alcohol Page USC Home Page Teenage DrinkingYou Can't Afford It We have all seen the public service billboards along the highways with the message "DUIYou can't afford it." Most of us have long since received and understood the message as to the costs and consequences of driving under the influence, which derive from a governmental effort in the early 1980's to reduce the incidence of drunken driving. The "legal" blood alcohol level was reduced, and penalties were made more stringent, and in some aspects, mandatory.In earlier times, an arrest for driving while intoxicated was often reduced to "reckless driving" at the magistrate level. This is no longer the case. A related phenomenon that many of us may have failed to notice is the developing law or perhaps specter of civil liability for underage drinking. Our state government has decided that persons under the age of 21 are incapable of handling alcohol.While we should accept this determination and protect our children out of a sense of love and concern for their safety, sometimes we are motivated by the "bottom line." Accordingly, we need to be aware of what items, including potentially "big ticket items" may go into establishing that ultimate economic cost. Considerable impetus for civil liability came from a 1983 Pennsylvania Supreme Court decision involving an 18-year-old driver who had attended an employer-sponsored Christmas party where alcohol was furnished.The 18-year-old consumed alcohol, and on his way home from the party, caused a motor vehicle accident.The employer was held to be civilly liable for monetary damages resulting from that accident on the basis of Pennsylvania law, which makes it a

The prosecution objects, arguing that because so much time has passed since the bombing (Rudolph, who will also eventually face trial for the fatal bombing at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, was a fugitive for over 5 years) three potential prosecution witnesses have already died.

Extractions: GOAL 2 To stimulate public awareness of, and dialogue about, law and its role in society. Strategies a. To convene public forums and conduct annual commemorations and campaigns about law and the role of the legal profession in society. b. To publicize programs, resources, and recognition mechanisms to diverse public constituencies. c. To market effectively the ABA Division for Public Education's programs and resources to diverse public constituencies. d. To promote public awareness of the ABA's role in educating the public about law and legal issues. "A We need broad-based efforts to stimulate public awareness and engage citizens in dialogue about law and legal issues and the role they play in a law-based democratic society. Accordingly, public education about law is critical to effective citizenship and the maintenance of a free and democratic society. The American Bar Association has long recognized this. "Education," the great Swedish sociologist and economist Gunnar Myrdal emphasized, "has in America’s whole history been the major hope for improving the individual and society." The ABA’s commitment to public education about law is consistent with that insight. With the approach of the 21st century, the realities of the information age in which Americans live make the need for public education about law that much more compelling. To meet current and future challenges, the ABA seeks to capitalize on its strengths, build on its past accomplishments and current activities, and vigorously search out more effective ways to promote public understanding of law and its role in our dynamic and increasingly diverse society.
