The issues in your case are narrow, but opposing counsel is demanding that your client disclose documents and provide witnesses for deposition that are completely disproportionate to the needs of the case. What began as a friendly dispute has grown into fiercely contentious litigation, including the service of broad and invasive discovery requests and its’ clear that opposing counsel is only interested in using discovery as a weapon to impose unreasonable burdens on your client and drive up the cost of litigation.
Learn how to put a stop to these excessive requests and more. Join our expert panelists to discuss the proper scope of discovery in litigation and "proportionality" as defined by Rule 26(b)(1) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Explore how to apply the standard to curtail unreasonable requests for the production of documents, as well as other tools such as depositions, requests for inspection, and discovery requests directed to third parties.
Our panelists will also share how they have applied the proportionality standard in previous litigation as well as the challenges that often face practitioners in their practice areas.
