This one is a fun little piece of pseudo-software litigation.
The basic facts are that Facebook and its majority stockholder Mark
Zuckerberg have been sued by Paul D. Ceglia, who claims 84%
ownership in the website juggernaut. The part of this story
that has been clogging the Net is that a state court judge in
New York actually issued a temporary restraining order ("TRO")
prohibiting Zuckerberg and Facebook, Inc. from disposing or
selling any of its assets. This has produced the...

Your friendly neighborhood technology counsel here: The
Indiana Supreme Court recently discussed the ability of a lay
witness to provide "expert" opinions in
Sibbing v.
Cave, 922 N.E.2d 594 (Ind. 2010). In that

between the two groups.
The TechPoint Mira Awards, presented by BKD, is the premier
technology awards program in the state of Indiana. Since the
turn of the century, TechPoint has honored Indiana businesses,
schools and universities, and individuals for...

all the legal jargon, and clicked "I Accept" or "I Agree"
without taking the time to actually read the terms and conditions
you're agreeing to?
Admit it. We all do it.
But, just as a warning to be careful the next time you're
purchasing that new mp3, or
more importantly signing your
company up for something on-line...
those shrink-wrap and
click-wrap agreements have been held by the courts to be
binding.Contracting in...

So
you've launched your company and hired a web-developer to breathe
life into the idea you've poured your heart and soul into
developing over the past several months, perhaps even
years...
Maybe you never even thought to ask the question, but at
the end of the day who actually owns "your" website? You or
the web designer?
Indiana software litigation in a ruling by the Supreme Court of
Indiana,
Conwell v. Gray Loon Outdoor Marketing Group,
points to the fact that hiring a contractor for the...

great post this last
week in the Indianapolis Business Journal's blog on Indianapolis

regarding the market.
