Hair-Raising Halloween Tales: The Legal Horrors of Haunted Houses & Trick-or-Treating
| Faculty: | Sasha H. Levites, Kyle Robinson |
| Production Date: | October 12 2011 |
Description
From visiting a haunted house to trick-or-treating on All Hallows’ Eve, Halloween celebrations, decorations, and costumes can give rise to a number of spooky legal issues. Join Lawline’s Program Attorneys Kyle Robinson and Sasha Levites as they share spine-tingling tales of legal horror in this special Halloween presentation. You’ll shiver with fright as the presenters review cases involving haunted house patrons who were “scared to death,” defamatory Halloween lawn decorations, and employment law disputes over risqué costumes. Before you can say “boo,” the presenters will explain what it means for a house to be haunted “as a matter of law,” and will explore a seller’s duty to reveal whether his property is stigmatized with nonphysical defects. To conclude this bone-chilling program, the presenters examine constitutional issues (pertaining to restrictions on sex offenders) surrounding the increasingly popular but controversial Halloween Laws. Don’t miss this thriller of a course – it’s sure to be the scariest CLE you’ll see all year!
