[stylist] contests

[Chris Kuell]

Hi Atty,

This is interesting, and surprising to me, and probably most of our members. 
I didn't read everything you sent, but the first link it to a document by a 
lawyer, and she certainly seems to know what she's talking about. And, 
indeed, it seems like having a writing contest, at least, a large scale 
writing contest, is illegal in some states. My guess is that no state 
official would pay much attention unless it was a big contest, involving a 
large amount of money, but then again, who knows?

The way around it, I suppose, is to work with a friend or colleague in 
another state where there's no legal issues.
