If their limitation of liability clause covers this, that argument doesn’t need to be made in court. I’m just asking the question. Putting the LLC into bankruptcy isn’t going to get anyone a refund.WilburHooksHands said:
I would imagine their sponsorships are very lucrative. Is “they cant afford the refunds” an argument you would make in court? SXSW LLC is a for profit company.HHusky said:
Could they actually afford to issue refunds? A lot of the work to put it on was done and paid for. My son’s band was going to perform, and I know there was a lot of pre-planning and ongoing effort taking place throughout the year.WilburHooksHands said:
Im sure they are covered by the language but are refunds going to be cheaper than dealing with a bunch of pissed off tech bros and record labels?HHusky said:
Pretty common limitation of liability language for these things. Nobody reads it. It only matters when it matters.dnc said:They're idiots if they stand by that policy.

It should be cancelled permanently for all time. Someone might catch a virus at the event.

Inslee's declaration will let any conference of over 250 in Seattle off the hook for Force Majeure- i.e., acts of god that make it illegal or impossible to perform. A lot of these other conferences which have cancelled across the country, probably won't be able to get out their contracts yet w/o paying damages because it's not illegal or impossible for the event to occur. "Abundance of caution" or "inadvisable" isn't covered.

No. His use of executive power makes it "illegal" and/or "impossible" for some contracting parties to perform.
