BakerHostetler's Pat Muldowney and Will Weber write: House Bill 433 – effective July 1, 2024 – strips local Florida governments of their power to regulate #employers in three important areas. First, the new law preempts local governments from creating heat exposure regulations. Second, it limits local governments from controlling the terms and conditions of private employment. And third, it forbids local governments from adopting predictive work schedule laws. We discuss each issue below. #florida #heatexposure #workschedules #statelaw

From Tannenbaum Helpern Syracuse & Hirschtritt LLP: Even if the Rule is not upheld, the legal landscape, public opinion and employee negotiations of restrictive covenants are increasing. For example, several states have recently enacted legislation preventing or curtailing the use of post-employment noncompetes and many bills are pending. Presumably, state legislatures have paused efforts to pass state law as we all wait to see the fate of the FTC Rule. This presents a great opportunity for employers to review and update their current restrictive covenants whether the Rule is ultimately upheld or not. #ftc #noncompeteagreements #finalrule #litigation #restrictivecovenants

From Morrison Foerster: This month we ask: How will two major U.S. Supreme Court decisions, one relating to a federal bribery statute and the other relating to the use of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) administrative proceedings, impact enforcement of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA)? How effective has Türkiye been in combatting foreign bribery? What changes are expected in German and European Union bribery laws? The answers to these questions and more are here in our June 2024 Top 10. #scotus #sec #fcpa #bribery #corruption

From Mintz: The USPTO update, effective July 17, 2024 and prompted by Executive Order 14110 on the “Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Development and Use of Artificial Intelligence,” aims to refine and clarify the process for determining the patent eligibility of AI-related inventions. Notably, it provides several examples of patent eligible and ineligible claims directed to AI technology paired with detailed eligibility analysis for each. Thus, the guidance provides practitioners with more tools to evaluate patentability of an invention and to draft claims that are more likely to avoid section 101 rejections common in software-related patent applications. #artificialintelligence #ai #patents #intellectualproperty #uspto

Faegre Drinker's Huw Beverley-Smith and Charlotte Perowne write: In May of this year, the UK Government passed the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act (DMCC) into law. The DMCC is wide-ranging and covers three key areas: consumer law, digital markets, and merger and antitrust law. In the first of our series of blog posts, we set out key points on the significant changes to consumer laws and regulatory enforcement powers of which US businesses selling to UK consumers need to be aware ahead of the law coming into force, which is expected to be later this year. #dmcc #uk #digitalmarkets #consumerlaws

From Fisher Phillips: A California federal court just allowed a frustrated job applicant to proceed with an employment discrimination lawsuit against an AI-based vendor after more than 100 employers that use the vendor’s screening tools rejected him. The judge’s July 12 decision allows the class action against Workday to continue based on employment decisions made by Workday’s customers on the theory that Workday served as an “agent” for all of the employers that rejected him and that its algorithmic screening tools were biased against his race, age, and disability status. #employmentdiscrimination #screeningtools #hiring #algorithms #artificialintelligence

Sheppard Mullin Richter & Hampton LLP's Abby Meyer writes: The Ninth Circuit’s recent Whiteside decision complicates the question of when information on the back of a product’s packaging can be used to clarify information on the front of the packaging. As a result, the bar for using back of pack information at the motion to dismiss phase seems to once again be raised. #productpackaging #consumerpackagedgoods #productlabels

From Coblentz Patch Duffy & Bass LLP: 2024 has been another big year for privacy. Several new state privacy laws are going into effect, with several more coming in 2025, while a federal privacy law continues to be discussed that would further change the privacy landscape across the country. Meanwhile, hot topics like artificial intelligence (“AI”), minors’ privacy rights, and international data flows continue to be at the forefront of proposed and recently enacted legislation and regulations. ... And privacy #litigation has seen an uptick due to novel legal theories around the use of website tracking technologies. There are certainly many issues for companies to put on their privacy “To Do List” for the remaining months of 2024. #privacylaws #statelaws #privacyrights #legaltheories
