Harassment by text message -- or "textual harassment" -- is becoming more prevalent. Texas and 45 other states have laws expressly criminalizing electronic forms of harassment, including text messages. Besides the obvious duties involved when investigating a claim of textual harassment, in-house counsel need to be aware of hidden dangers in trying to retrieve text messages or other electronic information as part of an investigation.

"This is a wonderful short and sweet opinion on using Facebook information in discovery. The Court’s recognition that Facebook usage can reflect the state of mind of a user was excellent to see. The only area somewhat concerning about the opinion was the fact the Facebook discovery was printed and not maintained in a digital form of production."

"The Legal Dilemmas of Social Networking, Part 1

I recently attended the day-long conference entitled Social Networking: Friends or Foes? (now on MP3) hosted by the Samuelson Law, Technology & Public Policy Clinic, the Berkeley Center for Law & Technology, the Berkeley Center for Criminal Justice and the UC Berkeley School of Law. The discussion focused on the legal and ethical issues facing lawyers and investigators using social networking contents in legal matters. "

"Media outlets increasingly are faced with a “new” kind of subpoena—one that seeks the identity of persons who have posted information anonymously to the media company’s website, blog or chat room. Typically, these subpoenas seek the names, addresses, and IP addresses of commenters. The reasons for doing so vary. Perhaps a plaintiff—who is barred by Section 230 of the Communications Act from suing the website—wants to name an anonymous poster as a defendant in a libel suit. Sometimes, prosecutors or law enforcement authorities may seek information about criminal matters or find potential witnesses.

While the law in this area is in its nascency, courts are gradually developing tests to determine when to grant these “John Doe” subpoenas. State courts and federal district courts have come up with a variety of approaches to subpoenas seeking to unmask anonymous speakers, some more protective of anonymity than others. Neither the Supreme Court nor any federal appellate court has weighed in on the issue, although the Supreme Court clearly has endorsed the notion that the First Amendment confers upon speakers the right to do so anonymously."
