ADDENDUM: THE STATUTE CHALLENGE

If you haven't read it already, scroll down to read all of the drama that unfolded when Home Depot allowed a contest entrant to change their video AFTER the contest was over, just to allow them to maintain their "win".

NOTE: It was called to my attention that since nobody has yet been able to substantiate Home Depot's/IMRE Communications' actions as legal, we should not only be looking for statutes that would explain that what Home Depot did was LEGAL, but also for statutes that would explain that what Home Depot did was ILLEGAL. By that, I mean statutes, prior cases, or documents from contest administrator organizations. Thanks to those who have e-mailed me some very interesting stuff. Since e-mail seems to be the venue of choice for people, the e-mail address to send these to is posted under the "profile" section. Good luck!
