Supreme Court Stops YouTube Broadcast of Prop. 8 Trial

Just before the trial addressing the constitutionality of California's same-sex marriage ban, the U.S. Supreme Court issued an order temporarily halting an online broadcast of the trial. The trial began yesterday in San Francisco, and the Court's order expires on Wednesday. Read the Los Angeles Times report here.

Really important disclaimer

You’re probably asking yourself, “Aren’t disclaimers supposed to be in teeny-tiny print?” This disclaimer isn’t in 2-point font for three reasons: (1) no one likes eye strain, (2) disclaimers are important, so the “teeny-tiny font rule” doesn’t make much sense, and (3) I’m a rebel. In fact, as you may have noticed, I’m even going to use contractions. Of course, just because I’m not using words like “heretofore” doesn’t mean anything here has less legal effect.

(1) This site has links to information created and maintained by other people and organizations, and anything on those sites is out of my control. Bad hair days, slow pizza delivery, and El Niño are also out of my control. I’d really like to control bad hair days and am working on that one, but I don’t expect any real breakthroughs. I have no control over the sites referenced or listed as hypertext links in this blog, so keep in mind I’m not responsible for content on other web sites you might visit via this blog (or bad hair days, slow pizza delivery, or El Niño, for that matter). Because I don’t control those third-party sites, I can’t guarantee the accuracy, relevance, timeliness, or completeness of any information or privacy policies posted on those sites.

(2) Any references or links to other sites are provided for your convenience. References or links to other sites don't reflect their importance, and shouldn't be considered an endorsement of the organization, product, or services sponsoring those sites, the views expressed on the sites, or products or services offered on the sites.

(3) This blog doesn’t offer legal advice, so nothing in it should be construed as legal advice. The information on the site is only offered for informational or educational purposes. You shouldn’t act or rely on anything in this blog or use it as a substitute for legal advice from a licensed professional.

(4) The content on this blog may quickly become outdated – especially due to the nature of the topics covered (i.e., technology and the law), which necessarily evolve all the time. The materials and information on this blog are not guaranteed to be correct, complete, or timely.

(5) Nothing in the blog and nothing you or I do on this blog creates an attorney-client relationship between you and the blog; between you and me; between you and the BrownWinick law firm or any of its attorneys; or between you and Spiderman -- or anyone else for that matter. Even if you try to contact me or another attorney through the blog or post a comment on the blog, you’re still not creating an attorney-client relationship. In fact, I might not get a chance to respond to you, and that shouldn't stop you from finding another lawyer. Although I'm a lawyer, I'm not your lawyer until and unless there’s a written agreement specifically saying so.

(6) Please don’t send me confidential information unless we have a written agreement expressly saying we have formed an attorney-client relationship. Frankly, you really wouldn’t want to send me information before we’ve made sure there’s no conflict of interest anyway. (i.e., What if the party you want to sue is my client? It'd just be awkward -- and actually pretty darn bad -- for all of us if we didn't resolve that issue before you give me all the details of your legal problem.)

(7) This blog does not necessarily reflect the views of BrownWinick or any of its clients.

(8) If you’re here with any kind of tax question, you’re really in the wrong place. Kind of like looking for a bucket of boredom in the middle of an officially declared fun zone. (Not that this blog is an officially declared fun zone. That was just an analogy. But I do hope you like the blog, notwithstanding its lack of official “fun” declarations.) If you're looking for tax help, you should find a tax lawyer. I don’t think you’ll find an officially declared fun tax lawyer, but I do wish you luck in such a pursuit. Seriously, though: Taxpayers can’t rely upon anything in this blog to avoid penalties.
