Triple bill of horror movies. 'Hiding' (2012) stars Ana Villafaņe
as a young woman attempting to begin a new life following the
brutal murder of her parents. Taken into the care of a witness
protection programme, a new identity is established for Jo
(Villafaņe) in Montana and she leaves her home in New York and her
past life behind. Unfortunately, when a man known as Mr Ostrog
(Dean Armstrong) appears and begins to take an interest in her, Jo
could be forgiven for thinking that the protection programme has
failed to keep her identity safe from the man she is due to testify
against. In 'The Victim' (2011) Annie (Jennifer Blanc)'s camping
trip with her friend, Mary (Danielle Harris), goes disastrously
wrong when Mary is savagely attacked and Annie witnesses her
murder. As she flees through the woods from pursuers Harrison (Ryan
Honey) and Cooger (Denny Kirkwood), Annie comes across a small
cabin inhabited by the loner Kyle (Michael Biehn), but will he help
her or hinder her? 'Beneath the Dark' (2010) is a psychological
thriller from first-time director Chad Feehan. Driving through the
Mojave Desert on their way to the wedding of an old college friend,
Paul and Adrienne (Josh Stewart and Jamie-Lynn Sigler) stop for the
night at Roy's Motel. Confronted by a surreal atmosphere and their
equally strange hosts, Frank and Sandy (Chris Browning and Angela
Featherstone), Paul begins to feel uneasy about his new
surroundings and wonders what lies in store for them.
This book explores the specialist area of cryptocurrency in the
context of matrimonial finance proceedings. The work is split into
two parts. The first part provides a comprehensive primer on
cryptocurrency and blockchain technology. It explains what
cryptocurrencies are, how they are held by their owners, and how
blockchain technology works. This part also considers the legal
status and current regulatory treatment of cryptocurrency in
England and Wales. The second part provides an overview of
financial remedies and the distributive principles applied by the
Family Court in matrimonial finance cases. It analyses the current
case law on cryptocurrencies as a variety of 'property', before
exploring issues that practitioners may face when encountering
crypto-assets in litigation. This includes the challenges of
valuing, tracing, and freezing cryptocurrency, as well as
disclosure considerations. The work includes an overview of the
principles relating to 'self-help' disclosure and associated
criminal offences pursuant to the Computer Misuse Act 1990 and the
Data Protection Act 2018. It also contains a summary of HMRC's
current guidance on the taxation of crypto-assets for individuals.
Cyber Litigation: The Legal Principles brings together the existing
legal principles in this rapidly developing area of law whilst at
the same time considering the latest challenges facing
practitioners and corporate advisers. The authors have surveyed the
legal landscape to identify bespoke approaches to the issues
involved. The book looks at the most common causes of action in
cyber litigation, including 'cybercrime', IP, data protection
breaches, and conflict of laws considerations. It analyses the
situations where cyber-related litigation requires a new approach
and looks at the remedies available. It covers cyber litigation and
regulatory enforcement action, as well as alternatives to
litigation such as the NCA Prevent scheme, Deferred Prosecution
Agreements and Civil Recovery. It describes situations where
arbitration or mediation are mandated, as well as online dispute
resolution and technology powered alternatives to traditional
determination. Readers will benefit from the use of flowcharts,
tables, checklists and case studies to provide a clear
understanding of the processes involved, as well as legal analysis
of significant cases, an insight into what constitutes 'data', and
legal analysis and commentary on potential legal arguments that may
arise in cyber litigation. Cyber Litigation: The Legal Principles
is an essential title for all practitioners involved in commercial
disputes, information technology professionals, data protection
officers, compliance staff and technologists with a legal interest.
