Chicago-Kent College of Law has experts available to discuss current legal issues. The NATO air strikes in Yugoslavia continue. The trial of seven men accused of misconduct in the prosecution of former Death Row inmate Rolando Cruz continues.
Experts are available to discuss the trial.
Chicago-Kent hosts the American Bar Association's Internet Jurisdiction Initiative, which is looking into such issues. The project will explore whether traditional laws apply to electronic commerce and determine whether new solutions are needed. The initiative marks the first wide-scale study of Internet jurisdiction in the United States, Europe and Asia. The results of the study will be presented at the ABA's annual meeting next year. Professor Margaret Stewart heads the project and is available for interviews.
