Problem Exists between keyboard and chair

March 7, 2019December 21, 2009 by Gordon Firemark

SHOW NOTES

Entertainment Law Update podcast episode 7

First, a word about Google Scholar http://scholar.google.com This service from google offers a wealth of legal research tools for folks interested in the law. Case law from state and federal courts is online, and a rudimentary “how it’s cited” feature gives a good sense of whether a case is ‘good law’. Not a substitute for ‘True’ legal research tools, but a great starting point, if you don’t want to incur charges. I use it to get started on things for clients, and in preparing for this podcast.
