Technology Law & Policy

Focuses on the cutting-edge technology issues and explores their effect on the law from a practical and a substantive perspective. As such, the Section presents speakers and forums to discuss issues relating to high technology, computer law, privacy rights, communications and biotechnology. The Section has several subcommittees, which address the following areas: Legislative, Publications, Speakers, Conference Programming and Internet issues. The Section's Publications subcommittee is responsible for the monthly update column published in The Colorado Lawyer. The Legislative subcommittee receives potential legislation on technology-related issues and serves to notify the Section of these issues and respond when appropriate. The Speakers subcommittee is responsible for providing speakers on technology issues for Section meetings.  The Conference Programming subcommittee works all year to put together an informative program for an annual conference, typically working with other sections and subcommittees to provide an integrated approach to technology issues. The Internet Issues subcommittee is currently concentrating its efforts on providing an on-line forum for our members and addressing secrecy, privacy and confidentiality issues relative to the expanding on-line legal practice. This Section would be of interest to anyone interested in the rapidly changing technology market and its effect on substantive legal issues and the practice of law.
