Understanding and Integrating the Sixth Circuit’s Cable Order
BB&K Free Webinar

The U.S. Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals handed down its decision in City of Eugene et al. v. Federal Communications Commission on local governments’ appeal of the Federal Communications Commission’s most recent interpretation of the Cable Act’s limits on local franchise authority. The May 26 decision has important financial and legal implications for all cable franchises – both locally negotiated and state imposed. It also impacts PEG access centers and state and local authority over cable operators’ non-cable services. This webinar discusses the court’s decision, as well as best practices on incorporating its ramifications into local communities’ cable franchise negotiations and ongoing operations. Attorneys from Best Best & Krieger LLP and Spiegel and McDiarmid LLP, who represented local governments before the Sixth Circuit, join together for this presentation.
