Course Outline: "Property Crime in the Information Age” melds two independent fields, criminal law and the law of information and intellectual property. This new area of the law has evolved to protect information products from unauthorized use that is facilitated by the internet and digitization. The main focus is on federal criminal laws: trade secret theft, criminal copyright infringement, business information frauds, and identity theft, among other crimes. Policy issues, such as the relation between civil and criminal law, are examined throughout. There is no prerequisite.
