Home Firm Profile Attorneys Areas of Practice ... Employment Y2K Legal Issues: A Practical Guide for Business Table of Contents: I. Introduction II. General Observations III. Contract Issues IV. Insurance Issues V. Legislation Introduction General Observations . First, we must recognize that the Y2K problem has been known to the computer industry since the late 1980s, and has been discussed in the general media since at least early 1996. Therefore, the problem was and is foreseeable, and with the investment of sufficient resources and the exercise of due diligence, presumably avoidable. This is a significant factor for legal analysis of the Y2K problem because as a general matter, whether you are considering contract issues, tort issues (i.e., negligent damage to property or personal injury) or insurance recovery issues, a claimant has a legal duty to prevent foreseeable losses, and to minimize damages to the extent that they are avoidable. Failure to take action to avoid foreseeable losses can forfeit your rights to recover damages caused by Y2K problems, or the right to recover your losses from insurers. Second, although there have been forty to fifty Y2K-related lawsuits filed in the United States within the last year to eighteen months, there have been very few court decisions issued. Many of the key questions about Y2K legal liability have yet to be answered by any court and lawyers must analyze these questions on the basis of general legal principles. A third general observation is that "contingency planning" is a necessary part of every Y2K program because you cannot and will not find all the problems. Beyond being good practical advice, a business that fails to include contingency planning as part of its Y2K program and thereby suffers serious disruptions of services and operations, runs the risk of being found to have a program that was seriously deficient and lacking in due diligence.

Korean Legal Research Resources on the Internet Taehan Min'guk [Republic of Korea (Korea, South)] By Heija B. Ryoo , Professor and Director of Library Systems and Technical Services School of Law Library, Southern Illinois University, Carbondale, IL 62901 Revised: 03/03/2003; OCLC record number:40264853 Table of Contents Preface Korean Legal System The Constitution The Government ... Conclusion Preface Since the enactment of the Framework Act on Informationalization Promotion in August, 1995, and a presidential decree on Enforcement Decree of the Framework Act on Informationalization Promotion in December, 1995, there have been dramatic changes in how government agencies make information available to the Korean public. The Act on Disclosure of Information by Public Agencies in December, 1996 ensures the "people's right to know and secures participation of the people in state affairs." Public access to official government information is now provided mostly via the Internet at no charge to the public, and legal information on legislation, administrative regulations and court cases is readily accessible from the government sites. Foreign legal researchers still face difficulty in doing Korean legal research due to lack of Korean legal resources in English. Lack of comprehensive Korean legal research guides, legal encyclopedias, legal dictionaries, treatises, textbooks, and legal indexing services in English is an added difficulty. For most researchers in the United States, there is no ready access to Korean print materials since there are only a few law libraries in the United States that collect comprehensive Korean legal materials.

Fast Find: [Article #51] Y2K - Are You Ready? Upgrading all of our hardware by replacing motherboards in the vast majority of our system is the first step we took to prepare for Y2K. Some, because of the age of the equipment or the complex work they do, will have to be replaced altogether. We must pay particularly close attention to the computers that run our ink-jet imaging and mailing department because the entire process is done electronically. The hardware/software currently in use by that division would render the data files from our customers next year unusable. Mailing and imaging is one of our fastest growing services-it is imperative we fix the problem now. On the upside, we have made progress in our preparation for the new millennium and feel confident we will be ready. The computer world, meanwhile, continues to explode offering more awesome ways to do business every day. We now have a corporate intranet allowing all our employees access to such things as company memos and announcements, our three websites, and our quality management system. The latter of these is extremely important because it houses all the information necessary for ISO-9002 compliancy. The forms are updated electronically and our employees browse them as needed. In addition, employees can access any of the ISO procedures and forms necessary (and believe me, there are many) to ensure compliancy and fill them out online. We are also working to expand our in-house system that currently allows employees to check on the status of jobs and make this same information available to our customers in a secure manner. (Scary thought, huh?)

Y2K: Avoiding the Legal Byte. A Guide for Managers and Legal Advisers by George Cho, Eugene Clark and Arthur Hoyle* University of Canberra Sydney: Prospect Publications, ISBN 1 86316 1449, 206 pp. As the countdown to the Year 2000 many would have heard and seen in the media about the Y2K or Millennium Bug. You may think that only big business will be affected, but chances are that the problem may affect not only small to medium sized businesses but also individuals and households as well. 'Being affected' is only a simple way of putting it because you can be affected either as a person who has suffered loss or damage and you are seeking to find some remedies from somebody or you are that somebody who wishes to minimise the legal and economic risks that accompany these problems. What then is the Millennium Bug? Many computer systems are unable to cope with the change in dates from 1999 to 2000. The problem has arisen because computer programmers in the 1960s and 1970s represented years using only the last two digits (but not the century) in order to save computer space. This means that when the year 2000 arrives, computers may think that they have gone back in time to 1900 and therefore malfunction. Such a problem affects any electronic equipment containing a non-2000 compliant computer chip. While some equipment may continue to operate it may display incorrect dates.

This publication is not intended to provide legal advice on specific subjects, but rather to provide insight into legal developments and issues that may be useful to our clients and friends. Advertising material: Commercial solicitations are permitted by the Missouri Rules of Professional Conduct but are neither submitted to nor approved by the Missouri Bar or the Supreme Court of Missouri. Year 2000 by Robert E. Dolan As the clock ticks down to January 1, 2000, most businesses have focused their efforts on ensuring that internal information systems are Y2K compliant, as well as those of suppliers, customers, service providers, and others in the chain of commerce. Y2K failures are predicted, with potential liability for losses estimated in the billions of dollars in the U.S. alone. As efforts at technical Y2K compliance continue, businesses should not overlook steps that may be taken now to minimize potential legal liability for Y2K failures.
