In this regard, there is a type of supervisory gap which may give the unexpected results for the companies in charge of e-commerce which are involved legal claims. The present paper studies feasibility of using the concept of e-commerce custom as a legal source and also as a potential solution for resolving legal disputes relating to international e-commerce contracts. Based on this offer, e-commerce promotes some of the most common methods in web to law level with which it gives a flexible set of rules and criteria relating to the performed transactions in the network.
