9th Circuit Rules E-Mail Is Not an 'Electronically Printed' Receipt
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals recently tackled the legal
ramifications of a near digital-age anachronism: the word "print." In
affirming the dismissal of a putative class action facing Expedia, a
three-judge 9th Circuit panel concluded that under the Fair and Accurate
Credit Transactions Act, an e-mail doesn't count as an "electronically
printed" receipt. We're not sure whether the ruling helps align FACTA with
the realities of online commerce, but it's a clear victory for Expedia's
lawyers at Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati.
