Unfortunately, while the 11th Circuit found that the e-mail exchange constituted a binding contract under Florida law, the court did not address whether the e-mail exchange constituted a “writing” for purposes of Section 204 of the Copyright Act. Prior to the adoption of the E-Sign law, courts differed as to whether an e-mail exchange would satisfy the writing requirements of Section 204. Section 7001(a)(2) of the federal E-Sign Act, which was enacted in 2000, provides in relevant part that “a contract relating to [a transaction in or affecting interstate or foreign commerce] may not be denied legal effect, validly or enforceable solely because an electronic signature or an electronic record was used in its formation.”
