RE: Using M-dash and N-dash (legal)

["James Jones" <doc-x -at- earthlink -dot- net>]

Abhijit, 

  About the part of your question about legal English (in the US, for
other places I don't know), here's a snippet of legalese from a
copyright notice and my edit. The snippet is clear enough, I guess, but
it is wordy, redundant, and comes off as being legalistic.
  But being clear and unambiguous is always more important.
