Doe V. My Space - Arguments and Issues On Appeal

Arguments and Issues On Appeal

Plaintiffs appeals the district court's dismissal of their claims for negligence and gross negligence arguing:

  1. That § 230(c)(1) of the CDA is inapplicable here because their claims do not implicate MySpace as a 'published' protected by the Act
  2. That MySpace was partially responsible for creating the content of the information that was exchanged between Julie and Solis.
  3. That § 230(c)(2) does not immunize MySpace's failure to take reasonable steps to ensure minor's safety
  4. The court should apply the law of premises liability germane to owners of real property to publishers and Internt service providers operating in the virtual world of cyberspace.

Famous quotes containing the words arguments, issues and/or appeal:

    Yesterday the Electoral Commission decided not to go behind the papers filed with the Vice-President in the case of Florida.... I read the arguments in the Congressional Record and can’t see how lawyers can differ on the question. But the decision is by a strictly party vote—eight Republicans against seven Democrats! It shows the strength of party ties.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    Cynicism formulates issues clearly, but only to dismiss them.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    You can’t write about people out of textbooks, and you can’t use jargon. You have to speak clearly and simply and purely in a language that a six-year-old child can understand; and yet have the meanings and the overtones of language, and the implications, that appeal to the highest intelligence.
    Katherine Anne Porter (1890–1980)
