Y2K Legal Issues Many of the key questions about y2k legal liability have yet to be answered by any In October, 1998, Congress adopted Public Law 105271, the Year 2000 http://www.vanblk.com/articles/Y2K.html
Extractions: 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.

Many IT managers divide their review of technology for Y2K issue into two parts. The first part of the review is to identify the technology staying in place after the 1 st of January 2000. The issue here is how to make that technology Y2K capable and who bears the costs. The second part of the review is to ensure that the replacement technology is Y2K compliant. The issue here is often seen as being simply ensuring compliance. The first aspect reviewed is now generally well understood. It is the second aspect that illustrates the extent of the problem faced by many IT managers. According to a recent

Extractions: Y2K Legal Brief for Software Companies defending Year 2000 Bug Lawsuits This brief is a shareware legal defense treatise for the purpose of helping programmers and software companies prepare a legal defense against Year 2000 lawsuits. The legal industry is positioning itself to rip off the computer industry for as much as one trillion dollars over the millenium bug And when I say rip-off, that's exactly what I mean. Without a good legal defense the computer software industry is vulnerable to slick legal arguments that would mislead a jury into awarding damages against software companies that are unjust. I feel the time has come for me to write this brief and start defining what the legal issues are with respect to Y2K liability so that this document can be used as a legal defense to Y2K millenium bug litigation. This document is intended to be used by programmers and software companies in court so that the judge and jury can more fully understand the complex technical issues involved when it comes to determining Y2K liability. If you get sued for a Year 2000 bug, you're going to want your lawyer to be familiar with the legal issues contained herein. This document can also be used to prevent lawsuits and litigation from occurring in the first place. By showing the lawyers that software vendors have a strong legal defense, many lawyers will realize that Y2K litigation isn't a pot of gold where lawyers to get rich quick off the backs of programmers and software users. This document is a weapon. Sometimes all you have to do is show the weapon to prevent and attack. This document has that kind of power.
Extractions: dqmcodebase = "/" In 1999, NACCB scored a significant legislative victory for IT staffing firms potentially saving millions of dollars in unnecessary legal fees from unwarranted and frivolous lawsuits due to Y2K failures. On July 20, 1999 President Clinton signed public law 106-37, the Y2K Act. This enactment largely removes mounting pressure over the impending Y2K computer crisis. The protections offered by the new law will allow NACCB member firms and their IT professionals to address Y2K problems with less fear of unwarranted and frivolous lawsuits. As stated in the Y2K Act, one of its purposes is to "establish uniform legal standards that give all business. . . incentives to solve year 2000 computer date-change problems before they develop." It is important to understand that this Act does not provide carte blanche protection from liability in cases involving Y2K remediation. However, there are a number of provisions that are important to the IT staffing industry and for which NACCB fought very hard. Before those are detailed, it is vital to ascertain whether specific cases that arise from remediation are covered under the Act. If you have questions regarding coverage prior to entering into a contract it is advisable for you to contact an attorney who can verify your legal standing. The following provisions are important to note, and were supported by NACCB: (1) pre-litigation notice requirements, (2) duty for plaintiffs to mitigate damages, (3) punitive damages limitations, and (4) proportionate liability protections.
