Survey of the Law of Cyberspace: Electronic Contracting Cases 2006-2007
Juliet M. Moringiello Widener University - School of Law William L. Reynolds II University of Maryland - School of Law Business Lawyer, Vol. 63, p. 219, 2007 U of Maryland Legal Studies Research Paper No. 2007-28 Widener Law School Legal Studies Research Paper No. 08-06 Abstract: In this annual survey, we discuss the electronic contracting cases decided between July 1, 2006 and June 30, 2007. In the article, we discuss issues involving contract formation, procedural unconscionability, the scope of UETA and E-SIGN, and contracts formed by automated agents. We conclude that whatever doctrinal doubt judges and scholars may once have had about applying standard contract law to electronic transactions, those doubts have now been largely resolved, and that the decisions involving electronic contracts are following the general law of contracts pretty closely.
