THE WESTVIEW WITCH TRIALS

2:30 pm in ROOM 709 In Wandavision, Wanda subjected an entire town into her sitcom-oriented alternate reality. In this panel, we put Wanda on trial. Is she guilty of kidnapping? Torture? Copyright infringement? Is mind control a crime even if you don’t know you are doing it? Or was she simply protecting herself in the only way she could? Is Vision liable as an accessory to the crimes? Our panel of legal experts (including Phil Weiser, the Attorney General of Colorado) discuss and debate the issues. Panelists: Bethany Bengfort, Durie Tangri LLP Nari Ely, Durie Tangri LLP Josh Gilliland, The Legal Geeks, Mollybeth Kocialski, US Patent & Trademark Office Mark Lemley, Stanford Law School Phil Weiser, Attorney General.

THE LAW OF UNIVERSAL MONSTERS 

1:30 pm in ROOM 709 The Classic Universal Monsters set the gold standard for horror films. These movies also raise great legal issues. Could Frankenstein’s Monster be legal competent to stand trial for the death of Little Maria? Is the Wolf Man a Peeping Tom? Would the Creature from the Black Lagoon be an Endangered Species? Is it desecration of a corpse to bring a mummy to life? Join our panel of lawyers to find out the answers to these monstrous legal issues. Presented by The Legal Geeks.
