Abstract
Laudal's Lemma states that if is a curve of degree in over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 such that its plane section is contained in an irreducible curve of degree s, then lies on a surface of degree . We show that the same result does not hold in positive characteristic and we find different bounds which ensure that is contained in a surface of degree .
