The Law of Universal Monsters

Room 114

Saturday August 17, 2019 - 1:00 pm to 2:00 pm


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? Is the Creature from the Black Lagoon an Endangered Species? Is it desecration of a corpse to bring a mummy to life? Join US Magistrate Judge Stanley A. Boone, Professor Stephen Tollafield (University of Hastings College of Law), Angela Storey, Esq., and moderated by Joshua Gilliland, Esq., to find out the answers to these monstrous legal issues. Presented by The Legal Geeks. (CLE Approved for CA Attorneys)
