There is no defense by posting a link or identifying the source. Don't know where that comes from but it is quite untrue. Attribution is a nice thing but no way required or useful in a defense.

There is a general view that a small excerpt and a link are generally legal under the fair use rule. They can likely still sue though. You do have a defense and may be able to set it up so your legal costs get paid when you win.

And note that these damages generally need not be proved. A Judge however must agree to their size.

Commercial law practice.

They are going after statutory damages...where no actual damages have to be proven.

They may not get $75K but they may well get 25 or 50.

The answer is to link..don't cut and paste.

And they will win. It is virtually automatic. The issue is the damages.

I find it difficult to believe that the Sun would publish this sort of thing with a straight face. You utterly misrepresent what was found.

The finding was that 40% of the respondents would live something else if there were no constraints. I find it amazing it was not 80%.

If cost was no object I would live in Newport Beach...on the strand. Or Papeete. or the gold coast in Australia. There have to be a few hundred places better than Las Vegas if cost is not a constraint.

So why on earth would you suggest anyone actually wants to leave with such a criteria?

You folks have apparently forgotten about basic journalism. The head should have some connection to the meat...

Actually both the condo and single family markets are reasonably stable in LLV. Condos running around $100 psf and single families about $150. Been pretty stable for 6 or 9 months. Inventory is par for Las Vegas.

I would think the real risk is a long term doldrum rather than any form of collapse. The damage is done. Eventually it will get better though not for a while.

By US standards LLV is a perfectly viable LV suburb. It ain't that far. And in time the development will start again...though likely at a somewhat lower price point.

I am sorry. I did not realize that you have a handicap until this last post.

Do you think you should be runnig for office with your diminished capabilities?
