Caltech/Loyola DMCA Mock Trial: MPAA+DOJ v. EFF

Posted by timothy on Tuesday May 18, 2004 @11:08AM from the are-you-mocking-me dept.

Seth Schoen writes "Caltech and Loyola Law School students will argue Friday over a scenario in which a student creates a distributed computing application to crack DRM systems, leading to DMCA criminal prosecution of everyone involved. Those in the Los Angeles area might enjoy attending the 5th annual "At the Crossroads" mock trial (free, Friday May 21 at Caltech in Pasadena). The case will have many realistic touches. A real Federal judge will hear it; the prosecution will be advised by L.A. Federal prosecutors and the defense by an EFF attorney. Expert testimony for the prosecution will be given by MPAA's Brad Hunt and for the defense by EFF's Seth Schoen."

It's Loyola Marymount by netringer · 2004-05-19 05:02 · Score: 2, Informative

It's Loyola Marymount's Law School in Los Angeles participating, not Loyola University, which is Chicago. It looks like they both are taking pains to differentiate - "Loyola Marymount" vs. "Loyola University Chicago".

Other than that, carry on.
