The Los Angeles roundtable will be held on July 29, 2014 at Loyola Law School, Walter J. Lack Reading Room, 919 Albany Street, Los Angeles, CA. The Berkeley roundtable will take place the following day, July 30th, at UC Berkeley School of Law, Booth Auditorium, 215 Bancroft Way, Berkeley, CA.

These Green Paper roundtables will focus on the following topics: 1) the legal framework for the creation of remixes; (2) the relevance and scope of the first sale doctrine in the digital environment; and (3) the appropriate calibration of statutory damages in the contexts of (i) individual file sharers and (ii) secondary liability for large-scale infringement.
