This SERVICE AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is a contract between you (“Customer”) and Case-A-Day Corporation (“Corporation”). You must read, agree with and accept all of the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement to become a Customer of the Corporation and receive the Case-A-Day Legal Summary Service (“Service”). Your use of the Service shall be deemed acceptance of all the terms set forth in the Agreement. Corporation may revise this Agreement with 30 days’ prior notice by posting notice on the “Policy Updates” page of our website. Any revision of this Agreement shall apply to your continued use of the Service.
1. CASE-A-DAY LEGAL Summary Service; NOT LEGAL ADVICE. In consideration for your payment of the Service fee and compliance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement, Corporation will provide you with summaries of published Indiana appellate court criminal cases (“Summaries”) via email delivery using Microsoft Word and provides to you a limited license to access Summaries on your own computer and print one copy for your own personal or professional use. Under no circumstances shall Corporation be deemed to be rendering any legal advice to you, or any customer, person and/or entity. You must have a functional email address and the ability to open and view Microsoft® Word and/or Adobe® PDF documents in order to use this Service. The Service does not include the following: (a) any case that is not an Indiana case; (b)“Not for publication” cases; (c) civil cases; (d) administrative law cases; (e) federal cases; and (f) any case that is not a published Indiana criminal appellate court case. Generally, Corporation will provide the Summaries on a daily basis during the workweek, Monday-Friday, weekends and holidays excluded. While Corporation will attempt to provide one summary each such day, due to uneven posting by the Indiana Appellate Courts, Corporation does not guarantee one case per day. There will be days when you may receive no summary. Additionally, if a case is deemed legally insignificant by Corporation, in its sole discretion, no summary will be provided. The timing of the Summaries depends on the length and complexity of the case summarized. While Corporation’s goal is to provide the Summaries as quickly as possible, Corporation does not guarantee next day service. Moreover, no guarantee is made regarding timing of the Summaries relative to the publication or posting of a case by the Indiana Appellate Courts.
2. Payment and Pricing. In consideration of your payment of the Service fee of three hundred and sixty dollars ($360) and your compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Customer will receive the Service for a period of one (1) year. In the event Corporation terminates this Agreement, Customer will receive a monthly pro-rated refund of the unused portion of the Service fee, without interest. The Service fee excludes all taxes. Payment of the Service fee is due upon acceptance of this Agreement. Payment will be accepted through PayPal only. Customer agrees that, upon any reversal or chargeback of the credit card payment made to Corporation, this Agreement will be terminated and Corporation shall have no other or further obligations to Customer.
