Chapter 0. Introduction to "The Legal List."
0.0. Introduction to the Introduction.
This chapter describes, e.g., how to get "The Legal List." If you are
trying to get a copy of "The Legal List," you can avoid many problems by
reading and following these directions. This is true not only of "The
Legal List" but also of all of the resources it describes. (For
example, you may get "The Legal List" via anonymous FTP from
ftp.midnight.com as pub/LegalList/legallist.txt, but you may NOT TELNET
to this site. See Section 0.7.3 for details.)
Since "The Legal List" ITSELF is a law-related resource on the Internet,
I list a few resources that do not THEMSELVES contain any Internet
resource (e.g. only a USPS mailing address may be provided). This is,
however, the exception rather than the rule.
The resources in "The Legal List" are listed in order of ease-of-
accessibility. The resources that are easiest to access are listed
first. For example, the user of a commercial online service (such as
CompuServe, GEnie, or America Online) may have access to Internet e-mail
but may not have FTP or Telnet access. To this user, the e-mail servers
are the most useful. Also, I have tried to list free services before
paid services. Finally, I have included appendices of general Internet
information that is not necessarily law-related. The following is a
summary of the contents of "The Legal List":
Chapter 1. E-Mail-Accessible Resources. This chapter describes law-
related resources available via e-mail such as government organizations,
74 law firms, law schools, law-related corporations, and subject-
oriented law-related lists. These lists (many of which are LISTSERV
lists) are like magazines in that one can subscribe and unsubscribe.
There are lists for a wide range of law-related interests such
intellectual property (CNI-Copyright), fathers' rights (FREE-L), and
issues of interest to law students (LawSch-L).
Chapter 2. FTP-Accessible Resources. This chapter describes law-
related resources available via anonymous File Transfer Protocol (FTP)
such as US Supreme Court decisions and Tufts University's Multilaterals
Project.
Chapter 3. Telnet-Accessible Resources. This chapter describes law-
related resources available via Telnet such as the Library of Congress
and the archives of Cornell University School of Law.
Chapter 4. Gopher-Accessible Resources. This chapter describes law-
related resources available via Gopher (an Internet client/server
protocol, developed in April 1991 by the University of Minnesota) such
as the archives of Washington and Lee University School of Law and 30
other law schools (26 US, 4 non-US).
Chapter 5. WWW-Accessible Resources. This chapter describes law-
related resources available via the World Wide Web (WWW) (a distributed
hypermedia system started by CERN, the European Laboratory for Particle
Physics) including 4 law firms and 10 law schools (9 US, 1 non-US).
Chapter 6. WAIS-Accessible Resources. This chapter describes law-
related resources available via the Wide Area Information Servers (WAIS)
(a networked full text information retrieval system developed by
Thinking Machines, Apple Computer, and Dow Jones).
Chapter 7. Usenet (Netnews) Newsgroups. This chapter lists law-related
newsgroups available on Usenet, the news network that is intertwined
with, but independent from, the Internet.
Chapter 8. BBS-Accessible Resources. This chapter describes law-
related Bulletin Board Systems/Services (BBSs) such as FedWorld, a
bulletin board set up by the National Technical Information Service
(NTIS) that connects to over 100 Federal bulletin boards. Many Bulletin
Board Systems/Services (BBS) of a legal nature exist, including private
BBSs, commercial BBSs, and Government BBSs.
Chapter 9. Computer-Aided Legal Research Resources. This chapter
describes computer-aided legal research, such as how to connect to
Lexis/Nexis and WestLaw via Telnet.
Chapter 10. Journals. This chapter lists technology-related law-
related journals such as "E Law," which is an electronically-available
journal.
Appendix A. More About the Internet. This appendix contains, for
example, information on how to get on the Internet, i.e. how to purchase
an Internet account.
Appendix B. More Books. This appendix lists introductory Internet
books, law-related books, and book publishers. Many of the publishers
listing in this appendix maintain a Gopher site.
Appendix C. More About Midnight Networks. This appendix describes
Midnight Network Inc (midnight@midnight.com), the company that provides
administrative support for "The Legal List" in the form of an anonymous
FTP server (and its disk space).
Appendix D. More About Congress. This appendix contains telephone and
fax numbers for members of the US Senate and House of Representatives.
0.1. Typographical Conventions and URLs.
Optional items are listed in brackets.
Items that should be interpreted are listed in italics. For example, If
I were instructed to type your name, I would type Erik J. Heels.
Uniform Resource Locators (URLs) are listed for each Internet resource.
I have followed the draft RFC standard dated 03/94, which is available
via anonymous FTP from internic.net as /ftp/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-
uri-url-03.txt. The URL for the URL draft standard is
URL: ftp://internic.net/ftp/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-uri-url-03.txt
In general, the URL will be in the format of connection-
method://machine/path. In the above example, the connection-method is
FTP, the machine is internic.net, and the path is /ftp/internet-
drafts/draft-ietf-uri-url-03.txt.

0.3. Purpose and History.
The purpose of "The Legal List" is to provide a consolidated list of all
of the law-related resources available on the Internet and elsewhere. I
have been "on the Internet" since 1984. I initially learned about the
Internet by looking over the shoulders of my friends and co-workers (I
believe that this is the way most people learn how to navigate the
Internet), and then I began exploring the Internet for myself. I spent
a great deal of 1992 exploring the Internet in search of law-related
resources, and I was frustrated that a comprehensive list of such
resources did not exist, so I created my own list. As I discussed what
I had been doing with others, they began to request copies of my list.
In August, 1992, I released the first version. I called this version
"beta.4," because it was (and is) a work in progress. What started as a
relatively short list for my own use has grown into the relatively large
book you are now reading.
I am committed to providing high-quality information, and as such, I
have tried to verify all of the information in "The Legal List." If I
have not been able to verify a resource, I have indicated so. I also
include resources that are no longer available, so that you need not
waste your time responding to an announcement of a so-called "new"
resource that has, in fact, been extinct for some time.
But providing high-quality information costs money. "The Legal List"
receives no financial support from any organization. (Administrative
support in the form of a Gopher server (and its disk space) is provided
by the University of Maine School of Law. Administrative support in the
form of an anonymous FTP server (and its disk space) is provided by
Midnight Networks, Inc.) I have invested my own time and money into
"The Legal List." As the copyright notice indicates, "The Legal List"
is free on the Internet, but it costs if you print it. I believe that
this arrangement is consistent with the spirit of providing free
information on the Internet, while at the same time allowing me to
partially recover the costs of producing "The Legal List." In response
to those who say that this arrangement makes those without Internet
access subsidize those with such access, I can only say that 1) this
arrangement encourages people to get on the Internet to get the free
version, and 2) I cannot think of a better solution.
I believe that "The Legal List" is worth the price. It is
comprehensive, frequently-updated, and "subscribable." Users of "The
Legal List" include individuals from courts (including the United States
Supreme Court and the United States Court of Appeals for the 9th
Circuit), approximately 70 universities (including 49 of the top 50 US
law schools), and 15 countries. But do not take my word for it, listen
to what others have said (names have been used with permission):
"I cannot wait to explore The Legal List further."

Administration, University of Maine, MAC@MAINE.MAINE.EDU
(For those who might be wondering why I am plugging my book IN my book,
let me explain. Much of Chapter 0 of "The Legal List" is included as
the README file that is archived with "The Legal List" and that is sent
to those inquiring about "The Legal List.")
0.4. For New Internet Users - A Brief Primer on the Internet.
Earlier versions of "The Legal List" stated that "a certain level of
familiarity with the Internet is assumed by the author of The Legal
List." I no longer make this assumption, as I have discovered that many
readers of "The Legal List" are unfamiliar with the Internet in general.
As such, I have added this "brief primer." For additional introductory
information, see the appendices.
A Brief Primer on the Internet. The Internet is THE international
network of computer networks. Each computer on the Internet speaks the
same language, the TCP/IP protocols. (In addition, many commercial
online services such as CompuServe and GEnie are connected to the
Internet via gateways. In essence, this means that the users of these
services can use limited Internet resources, most notably electronic
mail. But this is rapidly changing as these value-added networks make
other Internet protocols available, such as FTP and Telnet.)
The computers on the Internet are connected, essentially, by various
types of telephone lines. But what matters to the Internet-user is not
how these computers are connected or how an electronic mail (e-mail)
message gets from Maine to Finland, but simply that the Internet WORKS.
When people write a letter and send it from Maine to Finland via the
United States Postal Services (USPS), they know that the "to" and "from"
addresses must be written in a certain place, that mail may be returned
if there is a problem, and that mail may be disposed of after sitting
idly on the shelf of the post office (if, for example, both addresses
are illegible). Internet e-mail works in much the same way. Some of
the TCP/IP protocols deal with how to send, return, and dispose of e-
mail.
The advantages of Internet e-mail over USPS mail and telephone calls are
numerous. Unlike with USPS mail, you do not have to find a stamp and
drive to the nearest mailbox to send Internet e-mail. And unlike the
telephone, Internet e-mail is never busy. One winter, I planned a ski
trip in Maine entirely by e-mail. I was able to make sure that each
person got the same information, I could keep track of RSVPs, and I did
not have to worry about making phone calls.
Not Just for Scientists Anymore. Formerly used exclusively by
government, military, and research users, the Internet is now being used
by people in all lines of work. As more people get on the Internet,
fewer people will be able to ignore the Internet. Lawyers will need to
get on the Internet to communicate with their clients and with each
other. 1993 may go down in history as "the year of the Internet."
Consider that in 1993 there were more references to the Internet in the
New York Times than there were in all previous years combined!
Summary. When I was writing choosing a name for "The Legal List, Law-
Related Resources on the Internet and Elsewhere," I initially had chosen
"beyond" instead of "elsewhere." However, I decided to go with
"elsewhere" because in terms of electronic resources, NOTHING is beyond
the Internet. As big as commercial online services (such as CompuServe
and GEnie) may get, they will always be a subset of the Internet. The
"elsewhere" sections deal primarily with resources that are not on the
Internet, but that may be someday. And as the Internet expands, there
will be more legal issues (intellectual property, privacy, and First
Amendment issues to name a few) to tackle. Was 1993 the year of the
Internet? I am not sure, but I do know that the Internet is here to
stay, and for lawyers and others who are concerned about the future of
the Internet, now is the time to get on.

0.7.2. E-mail.
Due to the size of "The Legal List" (and to keep justice.eliot.me.us
running as efficiently as possible), I only send the initial release of
"The Legal List" via e-mail to those who have subscribed to "The Legal
List" (see Section 0.7.2.1). I will NOT be able to send individual
copies via e-mail after the initial release. However, you can still get
a copy of "The Legal List" e-mailed to you by using FTPMail (see Section
0.7.3) or by using the mail-server at MIT (see Section 0.7.5).
0.7.2.1. Subscriptions.
If you wish subscribe to "The Legal List," send a message in the
following form:
To: legal-list-request@justice.eliot.me.us
Body of message: subscribe legal-list "your name" (where "your name" is
your real name)
I always like to hear where you learned about "The Legal List," so if
you also include this information in the BODY of the message, I would
greatly appreciate it! (This service is not a listserv list, but I am
considering this option. That is why I have made the subscription
method the same as for listserv lists.) The next version of "The Legal
List" (as well as other announcements) will be mailed to those who
subscribe.
To cancel your subscription to "The Legal List," send a message in the
following form:
To: legal-list-request@justice.eliot.me.us
Body of message: unsubscribe legal-list
Please allow a day or two for a reply to messages sent to
legal-list-request@justice.eliot.me.us. (If you send multiple
subscription requests, you will get multiple responses. However,
duplicate addresses are removed before any messages are sent to "The
Legal List" subscribers, so you should not receive multiple copies of
any messages.)

0.7.3.1. Internet Resource Guide - Directory of Directories.
"The Legal List" is one of many resources officially documented by the
InterNIC Directory and Database Services maintained by the NSF Network
Systems Center (NNSC) under a contract with AT&T. The "Internet
Resource Guide" (IRG) (formerly compiled and maintained by BBN, Inc.,
for the NNSC) has been moved to the "Directory of Directories" provided
by the InterNIC Directory and Database Services. In previous versions
of "The Legal List," I wrote "[t]he [IRG] is invaluable, and everyone
with a serious interest in the Internet should maintain a copy. The
NNSC's stated goal is 'to expose users to those facilities that will
help them do their work better.' (Internet Resource Guide,
Introduction, dated 16 Apr 90.) I wholeheartedly agree with this goal."
Although the IRG in its 1990-form is being discontinued, the entries
have been incorporated into the NNSC's new "Directory of Directories."
The "Directory of Directories" should prove to be an invaluable
resource.

1.1.32. US House of Representatives.
In June 1993, the House of Representatives' Committee on House
Administration announced a pilot program called the Constituent
Electronic Mail System. E-mail addresses are available for individual
Representatives and for House committees. So far, however, only a few
Representatives have signed up for e-mail.
The organizers of the pilot program kindly request that constituents
send a letter or postcard (that includes the sender's name, address, and
Internet e-mail address) by US Mail to their Representative so that the
Representatives will be able to verify the incoming e-mail is from an
actual constituent. The organizers also note that Representatives may
reply to e-mail messages via USPS mail.
For more information, contact:
E-mail: congress@HR.house.gov

Comments about the program can be e-mailed to:

1.2.00. Law Firms - Introduction.
It is important to understand that communication with a lawyer or law
firm by e-mail, including use of information resources provided by a law
firm via a WWW server or other Internet resource, DOES NOT without an
explicit mutual agreement create an attorney-client relationship. A
lawyer-client relationship can be created by e-mail only by a direct and
explicit agreement, confirmed by the lawyer or law firm and the client.
No implicit agreement can be asserted. Accordingly, great care should
be taken not to communicate information deemed confidential absent such
explicit confirmation. Contact your local bar association if you are in
doubt about the law in your jurisdiction.
The law firms listed here are under no obligation to keep any
information you send them confidential until AFTER they agree to form a
lawyer-client relationship with you. You should use e-mail or any
information services lawyers or firms provide via the Internet only as a
means of learning more about a lawyer or firm. If a lawyer or firm does
agree to represent you, you should then discuss how best to exchange
confidential information.
The firms listed below are among the few with connections to the
Internet. Nearly all of them subscribe to "The Legal List." All of the
firms below are accessible via e-mail, some have gone the extra step
establishing their own domain name, and some have gone even further,
providing FTP, WWW, or other access means. Note that there are some
firms listed elsewhere in this book (primarily in Chapters 2 and 5).
Note also that the information below, except where it was already
available on the Internet, was provided by the individual law firms.

more than 200 attorneys, the firm has experience in virtually all
aspects of business law and represents a wide range of companies doing

Early in its history, Haynes and Boone recognized the need to establish
a philosophy for managing itself and its relationships with its clients.
The firm's philosophy is built on these basic principles:
1) Quality Legal Advice. We must always deliver the highest quality
legal services. We must continue our professional development
throughout our careers and become experts in our respective fields.
2) Responsiveness. We must be responsive to our client's needs on a
timely and cost-efficient basis. We emphasize the importance of optimal
turn-around time on all projects.
3) Knowledge. We must understand the fundamentals of each client's
business and the individual philosophies and strategies of our clients
so that our legal representation will be well directed.
4) Communication. To be effective in the legal representation of our
clients, we must be good communicators. Our lawyers understand the
importance of presenting practical and "bottom line" conclusions.
5) Concern for Clients. A lawyer cannot be effective unless he or she
first cares about the client. A client will not care about us until we
have first genuinely cared about the client.
6) Team Spirit. Our law firm has developed and maintains an internal
culture that promotes a team effort.
7) Community Spirit. Our lawyers are good citizens and must remain
involved in our local communities. We expect our lawyers to contribute
through civic and charitable activities that meet a wide range of
needs.
