Drone Law Today

Drones can be used for almost anything that involves gathering information and presenting it in a way that makes sense. That includes the field of criminal law, especially when accident reconstruction is part of the defense. Today's episode is a recording of a panel discussion I was recently a part of at the FSU College of Law. I joined Tallahassee criminal defense lawyer Don Pumphrey, Jr. on a panel discussion with the FSU Aviation and Space Law Society. Our talk circled around the idea of using drones in criminal defense, and much more. Our talk went into areas like federal preemption, why drone law is an especially important branch of "robotics law" generally, how law students can develop expertise in new legal issues, and about why drone law is like Monday Night Football. Join us as we explore these things with the lawyers of the future.
