Snow, associate professor at the University of Arkansas School of Law, has written extensively about intellectual property issues dealing with copyright, trademark and Internet law. Specifically, he has investigated fair use and copyright law’s chilling effect on Internet expression, so-called “copytraps” – which occur when Internet users mistakenly believe that an author has given consent to users to download material – and “joyriding,” the act of accessing the Internet via another person’s wireless network.
Snow regularly presents papers at the Intellectual Property Scholars Conference, the Works in Progress Intellectual Property Conference, and the Intellectual Property Scholars Roundtable.
Snow earned his juris doctorate from Harvard Law School, where he was a member of the Journal on Legislation. Following law school, he clerked for Judge Edith Brown Clement of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. He then practiced law at Baker Botts in its appellate and complex litigation sections. While at Baker Botts, he represented clients in matters of intellectual property, Internet trespass and international real estate.
