    charges on the telephone bills of thousands of small businesses and

    When an online company or a natural person discovers that an online party
    is violating its rights, sometimes it is not simple to sue that party
    because its contact information may not be available straightforwardly.
    Then, how that online company or natural person may find the prospective
    defendant&#39;s address and contact information? Plaintiffs, most of the time,
    start by checking the prospective defendant&quot;s website, if any, to
    obtain its contact information. When these parties do not list their contact
    information, plaintiffs go to the Who Is database. This is a free-of-charge
    database that posts the information of any website owner. However, even
    this database may not provide the right contact information of a
    prospective defendant. So, what is the next step? <br>

    Jurisdiction for eBay Sellers </span></b><span style="font-size:6.5pt"><br>
    Courts faced with the question of personal jurisdiction involving eBay
    transactions have consistently held that the typical online auction
    process, in and of itself, is insufficient to confer specific personal
    jurisdiction over an out-of-state defendant. In some cases, where sellers?
    eBay postings are part of a broader e-commerce activity, the sellers may be
    subject to personal jurisdiction. <br>

    </span><b><span style="color:#8A8471">New
    Changes To Federal Rules Of Civil Procedure For Electronic Discovery 2008 </span></b><span style="font-size:6.5pt"><br>
    The US Congress amended the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (FRCP) on
    December 1, 2006, to adapt discovery rules to the proliferation of electronic
    communications. The new FRCP were completely rewritten and went into effect
    in December 2007. The purpose for the amendment was to make the rules
    simpler and add new dictates for electronic evidence, given society&#39;s
    tendency to store records electronically. This article illustrates on the
    amended FRCP. These questions will be answered to help understand the
    changes in the FCRP: What do the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure Cover?;
    What are the Main Changes in the FRCP?; What Does The FRCP Say About Email
    Requirements?; What About Deleting Emails and the Safe Harbor Provision? <br>
