Lessig Honored

News Professor Lawrence Lessig will receive the first American Bar Association Section of Business Law’s Cyberspace Law Excellence Award. The award will be presented Aug. 8 at the section’s Cyberspace Law Committee Dinner during the ABA Annual Meeting in San Francisco. Mr Vincent I. Polley, chair of the Cyberspace Law Committee, has issued a statement on the nomination:

'The evolution of cyberspace law is affected by three critical dynamics: the tension between privacy and security, the collision of intellectual property rights with technology and questions of jurisdictional reach. Professor Lessig has made important contributions in all of these areas. Perhaps more than any other person, he has facilitated informed and thoughtful discussion of underlying policy choices and the context in which they will be made. It is entirely fitting that Professor Lessig be the first recipient of the committee's Cyberspace Law Excellence Award.'
