Practising Law Institute: Internet of Things 2020: Everything is Connected NY
Webinar | 05.20.20, 5:00 AM EDT - 1:15 PM EDT
As part of PLI’s Internet of Things 2020: Everything in Connected NY event, Cheri Falvey will be presenting on "IoT Litigation – Identifying and Mitigating Risk" at 4:15 pm.
IoT devices are amazing. They inspire us, entertain us, educate us, even feed and convey us. When they fail, they not only confound us, they often violate our privacy because they under-protect our information, and, sometimes, they physically harm us or damage our property. What are the legal theories available to aggrieved plaintiffs? What will be the impact of the California Security of Connected Devices law, and similar bills pending in other states on IoT litigation, including class action litigation. Are there pro-active protective strategies available to vendors? What practical means mitigate the risk including indemnification, insurance, establishing privity of contract, and creating enforceable agreements with a binding arbitration clause.

Rethinking "the Administrative State" - Takeaways From the Supreme Court's 2025–26 Term
The Supreme Court's 2025–26 term took up several momentous cases that will influence and, in key respects, reorient constitutional separation-of-powers principles moving forward. Join the D.C. Bar Administrative Law and Agency Practice Community for a discussion of the key takeaways from the Supreme Court's 2025-26 term. This panel will examine decisions addressing the scope of executive branch authority, including cases involving tariffs issued under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act and the removal of leaders of so-called independent agencies. The discussion will also address significant orders issued on the Court's emergency docket and what these decisions and orders signal about the distinct roles the three branches of federal government play in shaping the administrative state.
