[Am-info] April 2002 Judge Denies Dismissal Motion in DMCA Case

[Fred A. Miller]

April 2002  Judge Denies Dismissal Motion in DMCA Case
A lawyer for Russian software firm ElcomSoft argued that the US
does not have jurisdiction in the case because the transactions took
place over the Internet; the judge disagreed and denied the motion
to dismiss.  Two other motions to dismiss maintain that the Digital
Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) is "too broad and vague" and that
the charges against the firm are likely to be unconstitutional.
