Foreword.
Welcome
to The Legal List!
Armed
with your computer in its holster, you are about to swagger into an adventure
on a new frontier. Like other frontiers
that have come before, the world of the Internet isn't so much a place, as it
is the embodiment of a pioneering spirit to explore the unknown. And with this exploration comes an excited
anticipation of the way the future is developing.
Yet,
there's also something vaguely discomforting about this adventure. For while the Internet offers the potential
for new levels of freedom and individualism, this frontier also offers the
potential for lawlessness and destruction.
This book
is about the law on this new electronic frontier—what it is and where to find
it. As you use this book, don't be
alarmed if you notice gaping holes in the information about the law available
on the 'net. This is not due to
oversight on the part of the author.
This is due to the time delay we are experiencing as the law tries to
catch up with the early settlers on the frontier.
And
that's exactly what you are. Like the
cowboys and astronauts who came before you, you are paving the way for those
who will follow. These are exciting and
rapidly changing times for those of us using electronic communications. Hopefully, you'll find this book helps to
make sense of the law, even as it develops around you.

Chapter 0. Introduction to "The Legal List."
0.0. Introduction to the Introduction.
This
chapter describes, e.g., how to get "The Legal List." If you are trying to get a copy of "The
Legal List," you can avoid many problems by reading and following these
directions. This is true not only of
"The Legal List" but also of all of the resources it describes. (For example, you may get "The Legal
List" via anonymous FTP from ftp.midnight.com as
pub/LegalList/legallist.txt, but you may NOT TELNET to this site. See Section 0.7.3 for details.)
Since
"The Legal List" ITSELF is a law-related resource on the Internet, I
list a few resources that do not THEMSELVES contain any Internet resource (e.g.
only a USPS mailing address may be provided).
This is, however, the exception rather than the rule.
Within
each listing, the resources in "The Legal List" are listed in order
of ease-of-accessibility. The resources
that are easiest to access are listed first.
For example, the user of a commercial online service (such as
CompuServe, GEnie, or America Online) may have access to Internet e-mail but
may not have FTP or Telnet access. To
this user, the e-mail servers are the most useful. Also, I have tried to list free services before paid
services. Finally, I have included
appendices of general Internet information that is not necessarily
law-related. The following is a summary
of the contents of "The Legal List":
Chapter 1. Corporations and Organizations.
This chapter describes law-related resources made available by
for-profit, nonprofit, and not-for-profit corporations and organizations. An organization in this chapter would most
likely have a domain name ending in ".com" (commercial) or
".org" (organization). Law
firms are listed separately--sorted by the state (or country) of their main
office.
Chapter 2. Government Organizations.
This chapter describes law-related resources made available by US
government organizations. An
organization in this chapter would most likely have a domain name ending in ".gov"
(government). This chapter is divided
into four sub-sections: 1) US Federal
Executive Branch, 2) US Federal Judicial Branch, 3) US Federal Legislative
Branch, and 4) US State Government Organizations.
Chapter 3. Educational Institutions. This chapter describes law-related resources made available by US
educational institutions. An
organization in this chapter would most likely have a domain name ending in ".edu"
(education). This chapter is divided
into two sub-sections: 1) US law
schools, 2) other US educational institutions.
Chapter 4. Listserv Lists.
This chapter describes law-related listserv lists These lists are like magazines in that one
can subscribe and unsubscribe. There
are lists for a wide range of law-related interests such as intellectual
property (CNI-Copyright), fathers' rights (FREE-L), and issues of interest to
law students (LawSch-L).
Chapter 5. Non-US Resources.
This chapter describes law-related resources made available by non-US
organizations, governments, and educational institutions--including those made
available by the United Nations.
Chapter 6. Journals, FAQs, Usenet Newsgroups, Etc.
This chapter lists law-related journals, files of frequently-asked
questions (FAQs), and Usenet newsgroups.
Usenet is the news network that is intertwined with, but independent
from, the Internet. A resource is
listed in this chapter if it is primarily made available by an individual (or
by individuals) rather than by an organization, government, or educational
institution.
Appendix A. More About the Internet.
This appendix contains, for example, information on how to get on the
Internet, i.e. how to purchase an Internet account.
Appendix B. More Books. This appendix lists introductory Internet books, law-related
books, and book publishers. Many of the
publishers listing in this appendix maintain a Gopher site.
Appendix C. More About Midnight Networks.
This appendix describes Midnight Network Inc (midnight@midnight.com),
the company that provides administrative support for "The Legal List"
in the form of an anonymous FTP server (and its disk space).

/ftp/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-uri-url-03.txt. The URL for the URL draft standard is
URL:
ftp://internic.net/ftp/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-uri-url-03.txt
In
general, the URL will be in the format of
connection-method://machine/path. In
the above example, the connection-method is FTP, the machine is internic.net,
and the path is /ftp/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-uri-url-03.txt.
0.3. Purpose and History.
The
purpose of "The Legal List" is to provide a consolidated list of all
of the law-related resources available on the Internet and elsewhere. I have been "on the Internet"
since 1984. I initially learned about
the Internet by looking over the shoulders of my friends and co-workers (I
believe that this is the way most people learn how to navigate the Internet),
and then I began exploring the Internet for myself. I spent a great deal of 1992 exploring the Internet in search of
law-related resources, and I was frustrated that a comprehensive list of such
resources did not exist, so I created my own list. As I discussed what I had been doing with others, they began to
request copies of my list. In August,
1992, I released the first version. I
called this version "beta.4," because it was (and is) a work in
progress. What started as a relatively
short list for my own use has grown into the relatively large book you are now
reading.
I
am committed to providing high-quality information, and as such, I have tried
to verify all of the information in "The Legal List." If I have not been able to verify a
resource, I have indicated so. I also
include resources that are no longer available, so that you need not waste your
time responding to an announcement of a so-called "new" resource that
has, in fact, been extinct for some time.
But
providing high-quality information costs money. "The Legal List" receives no financial support from any
organization. (Administrative support
in the form of a Gopher server (and its disk space) is provided by the
University of Maine School of Law.
Administrative support in the form of an anonymous FTP server (and its
disk space) is provided by Midnight Networks, Inc.) I have invested my own time and money into "The Legal
List." As the copyright notice
indicates, "The Legal List" is free on the Internet, but it costs if
you print it. I believe that this
arrangement is consistent with the spirit of providing free information on the
Internet, while at the same time allowing me to partially recover the costs of
producing "The Legal List."
In response to those who say that this arrangement makes those without
Internet access subsidize those with such access, I can only say that 1) this
arrangement encourages people to get on the Internet to get the free version,
and 2) I cannot think of a better solution.
I
believe that "The Legal List" is worth the price. It is comprehensive, frequently-updated, and
"subscribable." Users of
"The Legal List" include individuals from courts (including the
United States Supreme Court and the United States Court of Appeals for the 9th
Circuit), approximately 70 universities (including 49 of the top 50 US law
schools), and 15 countries. But do not
take my word for it, listen to what others have said (names have been used with
permission):
"I
cannot wait to explore The Legal List further."

(For
those who might be wondering why I am plugging my book IN my book, let me
explain. Much of Chapter 0 of "The
Legal List" is included as the README file that is archived with "The
Legal List" and that is sent to those inquiring about "The Legal
List.")
0.4. For New Internet Users - A Brief Primer on the Internet.
Earlier
versions of "The Legal List" stated that "a certain level of
familiarity with the Internet is assumed by the author of The Legal
List." I no longer make this
assumption, as I have discovered that many readers of "The Legal
List" are unfamiliar with the Internet in general. As such, I have added this "brief
primer." For additional introductory
information, see the appendices.
A
Brief Primer on the Internet. The
Internet is THE international network of computer networks. Each computer on the Internet speaks the
same language, the TCP/IP protocols.
(In addition, many commercial online services such as CompuServe and
GEnie are connected to the Internet via gateways. In essence, this means that the users of these services can use
limited Internet resources, most notably electronic mail. But this is rapidly changing as these
value-added networks make other Internet protocols available, such as FTP and
Telnet.)
The
computers on the Internet are connected, essentially, by various types of
telephone lines. But what matters to
the Internet-user is not how these computers are connected or how an electronic
mail (e-mail) message gets from Maine to Finland, but simply that the Internet
WORKS. When people write a letter and
send it from Maine to Finland via the United States Postal Services (USPS),
they know that the "to" and "from" addresses must be
written in a certain place, that mail may be returned if there is a problem,
and that mail may be disposed of after sitting idly on the shelf of the post
office (if, for example, both addresses are illegible). Internet e-mail works in much the same way. Some of the TCP/IP protocols deal with how
to send, return, and dispose of e-mail.
The
advantages of Internet e-mail over USPS mail and telephone calls are
numerous. Unlike with USPS mail, you do
not have to find a stamp and drive to the nearest mailbox to send Internet
e-mail. And unlike the telephone,
Internet e-mail is never busy. One
winter, I planned a ski trip in Maine entirely by e-mail. I was able to make sure that each person got
the same information, I could keep track of RSVPs, and I did not have to worry
about making phone calls.
Not
Just for Scientists Anymore. Formerly
used exclusively by government, military, and research users, the Internet is
now being used by people in all lines of work.
As more people get on the Internet, fewer people will be able to ignore
the Internet. Lawyers will need to get
on the
Internet to communicate
with their clients and with each other.
1993 may go down in history as "the year of the
Internet." Consider that in 1993
there were more references to the Internet in the New York Times than there
were in all previous years combined!
Summary. When I was choosing a name for "The
Legal List, Law-Related Resources on the Internet and Elsewhere," I
initially had chosen "beyond" instead of "elsewhere." However, I decided to go with
"elsewhere" because in terms of electronic resources, NOTHING is
beyond the Internet. As big as
commercial online services (such as CompuServe and GEnie) may get, they will
always be a subset of the Internet. The
"elsewhere" sections deal primarily with resources that are not on
the Internet, but that may be someday.
And as the Internet expands, there will be more legal issues
(intellectual property, privacy, and First Amendment issues to name a few) to
tackle. Was 1993 the year of the
Internet? I am not sure, but I do know
that the Internet is here to stay, and for lawyers and others who are concerned
about the future of the Internet, now is the time to get on.
0.4.1. FTPMail (FTP via E-mail).
Many
resources are available via anonymous FTP.
If you do not have access to FTP, but you do have access to e-mail, send
a message to ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com with "help" in the body of the
body of the message for information on the FTPMAIL (FTP by e-mail) service.
URL: mailto::ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com (with
"help" in the body of the message) (FTPMail)
0.4.1.1. FTPMail Example.
For
example, to get "The Legal List" via e-mail from the FTPMail service,
send the following message to ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com:
connect
ftp.midnight.com
ascii
get
/pub/LegalList/README
get
/pub/LegalList/legallist.txt
quit
URL: mailto::ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com (with the
above text in the body of the message) (FTPMail)
The
files will be e-mailed to you in a day or so.
If you have problems with FTPing to ftp.midnight.com, send a message to
info@justice.eliot.me.us.
URL: mailto::info@justice.eliot.me.us (Erik J.
Heels)
0.4.2. Gopher Overview.
Gopher
is an Internet client/server protocol, developed in April 1991 by the
University of Minnesota, for making a world wide information service. Gopher provides a delivery vehicle for local
information and facilitates access to other Gopher and information servers
throughout the world. Gopher can also
search and retrieve info via WAIS and FTP.
Various client versions of Gopher software are available via anonymous
FTP:
URL: ftp://boombox.micro.umn.edu/pub/gopher/
Using
a local client is faster, but there are also a number of public Telnet login
sites available:
URL: telnet://gopher@consultant.micro.umn.edu
(North America)
URL: telnet://gopher@gopher.uiuc.edu (North
America)
URL: telnet://panda@panda.uiowa.edu (North
America)
URL: telnet://gopher@gopher.msu.edu (North
America)
URL: telnet://gopher@gopher.sunet.se (Europe)
URL: telnet://info@info.anu.edu.au (Australia)
URL: telnet://gopher@gopher.chalmers.se (Sweden)
URL: telnet://gopher@tolten.puc.cl (South
America)
URL: telnet://gopher@ecnet.ec (Ecuador)
URL: telnet://gopher@gan.ncc.go.jp (Japan)

0.4.2.1. GopherMail (Gopher via E-mail).
Gopher
is accessible via e-mail with GopherMail.
To use GopherMail,
send
a message to one of the GopherMail servers with "help" as the
subject
of the message (try to use a site near you):
URL: mailto::gopher@earn.net (France)
URL: mailto::gopher@ftp.technion.ac.il (Israel)

0.4.2.2. VERONICA.
VERONICA
stands for Very Easy Rodent-Oriented Net-wide Index. VERONICA is to GopherSpace what Archie, a program developed by
the McGill School of Computer Science, is to the Internet's anonymous FTP
archives. (For more information on
Archie, see The Internet Resource Guide/Directory of Directories (see Section
0.7.3.1). VERONICA offers a keyword
search of most of the
Gopher-server menu titles in the world.
To try VERONICA, select it from the "Other Gophers" menu on
the University of Minnesota's Gopher server.
0.4.3. WWW Overview.
WWW
stands for the World Wide Web. WWW,
started by CERN (the European Laboratory for Particle Physics), is a
distributed hypermedia system. To
access the Web, you run a browser program that can read and retrieve
documents. The browsers can access
information via/from FTP, Telnet, Usenet, Gopher, WAIS, and others.
The
following are some of the Browsers accessible by Telnet (try to use sites near
you):
URL: telnet://www@ukanaix.cc.ukans.edu (US)
URL: telnet://www@www.njit.edu (US)
URL: telnet://info.cern.ch (Switzerland)
URL: telnet://www@vms.huji.ac.il (Israel)
URL: telnet://sun.uakom.cs (Slovakia)
URL: telnet://info.funet.fi (Finland)
0.4.4. WAIS Overview.
WAIS,
the Wide Area Information Servers, is a networked full text information
retrieval system developed by Thinking Machines, Apple Computer, and Dow
Jones. WAIS currently uses TCP/IP to
connect client applications to information servers. Client applications are able to retrieve text or multimedia
documents stored on the servers. Client
applications request documents using keywords.
Servers search a full text index for the documents and return a list of
documents containing the keyword. The
client may then request the server to send a copy of any of the documents
found. The WAIS software distribution
is available via anonymous FTP:
URL: ftp://think.com/wais/wais-8-b5.1.tar.Z (WAIS
software)
URL: ftp://think.com/wais/wais-sources.tar.Z
(current WAIS sources/databases)
URL: ftp://think.com/wais/doc/ (documentation,
users guides, etc.)
If
you are in Europe try the following first:
URL:
ftp://nic.funet.fi/pub/networking/services/wais/ (WAIS files)
The
easiest way to get started (if you do not have access to a WAIS client) is to try the WAIS at Thinking
Machines:
URL: telnet://wais@quake.think.com
0.4.4.1. WAISmail (WAIS via E-mail).
If
you do not have access to WAIS but you do have access to e-mail, you might want
to try WAISmail, a WAIS via e-mail program.
For more information on WAISmail, send a message to WAISmail@Think.COM
with "help" as the subject of the message.
URL: mailto::WAISmail@Think.COM (with
"help" as the subject of the message)
With
WAISmail, you can search WAIS sources and retrieve documents identified by your
searches. Here is how the
"search" and "retrieve" commands work:
search
[<source-name>|"<source-name> <source-name> ..."]
{keywords...}
Where
<source-name> is a source name as found in the directory of servers (with
or without the .src ending). If you use
more than one source name and enclose them in quotes (as above), WAISmail will
search both of the sources. If you try
to search a nonexistent source, WAISmail will e-mail a list of sources to you. The following are some law-related WAIS
sources that you may want to try:
alt.gopher.src
alt.wais.src
archie.au-ls-lRt.src
bit.listserv.pacs-l.src

0.4.5. BBS Overview.
There
are approximately 50,000 BBSs nationwide, many of which are law-related. I have included only the essential
information about these BBSs here, namely the phone number to call and a
contact for more information. Most of
the BBSs run 24 hours per day, many charge a fee, many are accessible at
various baud rates. Your best bet is to
read the introductory information carefully for each BBS.
0.5. Disclaimer.

appearance of any resource in "The Legal List" does not constitute
endorsement of approval of the resource by the author, editors, and publishers
of "The Legal List." The
author, editors, and publishers of "The Legal List" have made

0.7.2. E-mail.
Due
to the size of "The Legal List" (and to keep justice.eliot.me.us
running as efficiently as possible), I only send the initial release of
"The Legal List" via e-mail to those who have subscribed to "The
Legal List" (see Section 0.7.2.1).
I will NOT be able to send individual copies via e-mail after the
initial release. However, you can still
get a copy of "The Legal List" e-mailed to you by using FTPMail (see
Section 0.7.3) or by using the mail-server at MIT (see Section 0.7.5).
0.7.2.1. Subscriptions.

0.7.3.1. Internet Resource Guide - Directory of Directories.
"The
Legal List" is one of many resources officially documented by the InterNIC
Directory and Database Services maintained by the NSF Network Systems Center
(NNSC) under a contract with AT&T.
The "Internet Resource Guide" (IRG) (formerly compiled and
maintained by BBN, Inc., for the NNSC) has been moved to the "Directory of
Directories" provided by the InterNIC Directory and Database
Services. In previous versions of
"The Legal List," I wrote "[t]he [IRG] is invaluable, and
everyone with a serious interest in the Internet should maintain a copy. The NNSC's stated goal is 'to expose users
to those facilities that will help them do their work better.' (Internet Resource Guide, Introduction,
dated 16 Apr 90.) I wholeheartedly
agree with this goal." Although
the IRG in its 1990-form is being discontinued, the entries have been
incorporated into the NNSC's new "Directory of Directories." The "Directory of Directories"
should prove to be an invaluable resource.

Chapter 1. Corporations and Organizations.
This
chapter describes law-related resources made available by for-profit,
nonprofit, and not-for-profit corporations and organizations. An organization in this chapter would most
likely have a domain name ending in ".com" (commercial) or
".org" (organization). Law
firms are listed separately--sorted by the state (or country) of their main
office.
One
of the best ways to find the e-mail address for a particular individual is to
call that individual. If you choose to
contact the individuals listed below via e-mail, please keep your e-mail
message short and to-the-point.
1.0. Corporations and Organizations.
1.1.00. Law Firms - Introduction.
It
is important to understand that communication with a lawyer or law firm by
e-mail, including use of information resources provided by a law firm via a WWW
server or other Internet resource, DOES NOT without an explicit mutual
agreement create an attorney-client relationship. A lawyer-client relationship can be created by e-mail only by a
direct and explicit agreement, confirmed by the lawyer or law firm and the
client. No implicit agreement can be
asserted. Accordingly, great care
should be taken not to communicate information deemed confidential absent such
explicit confirmation. Contact your
local bar association if you are in doubt about the law in your jurisdiction.
The
law firms listed here are under no obligation to keep any information you send
them confidential until AFTER they agree to form a lawyer-client relationship
with you. You should use e-mail or any
information services lawyers or firms provide via the Internet only as a means
of learning more about a lawyer or firm.
If a lawyer or firm does agree to represent you, you should then discuss
how best to exchange confidential information.
The firms
listed below are among the few with connections to the Internet. Nearly all of them subscribe to "The
Legal List." All of the firms
below are accessible via e-mail, some have gone the extra step of establishing
their own domain name, and some have gone even further, providing FTP, WWW, or
other access means. Note that the
information below, except where it was already available on the Internet, was
provided by the individual law firms.

NARRATIVE:
Wilmer,
Cutler & Pickering is an international law firm with offices in Washington,
DC, London, Brussels, and Berlin. We
have 240 lawyers engaged in a broadly-diversified practice. Our first priority is to provide top
quality, efficient, and responsive legal work--and to achieve successful
results. In a national survey,
corporate clients chose WC&P as one of a few firms on which they would rely
in a bet-your-company case, and in another, ranked the firm best overall of law
firms based in Washington, DC.
Our
practice covers many areas, including antitrust, banking, bankruptcy,
communications, environmental, general and commercial litigation, international
corporate transactions, securities litigation and enforcement, tax, and trade
regulation.
We
emphasize teamwork in handling matters that cut across multiple legal
specialties. Our lawyers are backed by
more than 130 legal assistants, computer specialists, economists, legislative
specialists, librarians, and others. We
control costs by lean staffing, appropriate non-lawyer support, and innovative
use of technology. In 1983, WC&P
decided to give every lawyer a PC.
Today, all lawyers and staff are on our LAN. Many clients are linked to our e-mail system. We have developed our own software,
including hypertext legal references and powerful optical imaging/text
retrieval systems for litigation support.
These tools make our practice more efficient and effective.

NARRATIVE:
Fried,
Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson is one of the nation's most prominent law
firms. Its practice is international in
scope, with more than 370 lawyers in New York, Washington, DC, Los Angeles,
London, and Paris. Fried Frank is best
known as a transactional law firm acting for businesses, individuals and
governments, often in highly complex matters, many of which are in the
forefront of financial and legal developments.
The firm was established at the turn of the century but its rapid growth
and wide recognition as a leader in its field occurred during the past two
decades. This coincided with an
increase in contested mergers and acquisitions, intricate corporate financings
and complex litigations. Business Week
has described Fried Frank as "one of the most sophisticated financial law
firms in the United States", and in the book, _Inside Track_, the authors
wrote that Fried Frank "...is considered to be a 'lawyer's law firm'... a
firm that general legal counsel turn to for the answers in complicated legal
issues."
In
addition to mergers and acquisitions, the firm has well established practices in antitrust, banking and
financial institutions, bankruptcy and restructurings, benefits and
compensation, energy, environment, estates and trusts, financings and public
offerings, government contracts, intellectual property, international trade and
investment, litigation, real estate, securities, securities law compliance and
enforcement, tax, and white collar crime.
