Professor Ryan Sullivan was quoted in the New York Times article “They’re Falsely Accused of Shoplifting, but Retailers Demand Penalties.” Sullivan was contacted after the article’s author read his Nebraska Law Review article “Stole Profits: Civil Shoplifting Demands and the Misuse of Neb. Rev. Stat. 25-21,194.”
As a result of the New York Times article, Professor Sullivan was a guest on Knowledge@Wharton to discuss what retailers are doing to recover losses from alleged shoplifters and what that means for those accused of shoplifting. The podcast aired on SiriusXM channel 132 (https://law.unl.edu/8-20-18%20Knowledge%40Wharton%20H1S2.wav)
