May 12: Winning the Proportionality Fight: Strategies for Articulating and Countermanding Assertions of Burden

Since the 2015 Amendments to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, proportionality has taken on an increasingly central—and some may argue, disproportionate—role in discovery disputes. In today’s battles over electronic evidence, proportionality can act as both a shield, allowing parties to avoid unnecessary and overly burdensome discovery, and a sword, striking down otherwise reasonable discovery due to a party’s slow, expensive, or outdated processes.
Join us Wednesday, May 12, for this webinar on proportionality disputes in eDiscovery, featuring seasoned litigators David Slarskey and Renee Bea of Slarskey LLC and Mariano Schwed, Senior Vice President, Law Department at NBCUniversal.
Attend to learn:

• The evolution of the proportionality standard and traditional metrics used to evaluate burden
• Sources of actual burden and tools and strategies for reducing them
• Accurately articulating and countermanding assertions of “burden.”
• Substantive advantages to getting “ahead of the burden”

September 11:The California Consumer Privacy Act: Preparing for the CCPA

Some of the greatest discovery challenges today aren’t arising from litigation, but from a new regime of privacy laws. The latest—and in some ways most challenging—of those laws is the California Consumer Privacy Act, or CCPA.
For organizations with even slight connections to California, and for those law firms advising them, the CCPA can create pressing new obstacles for compliance and data access.
Join Logikcull and an expert-packed panel for an upcoming webinar on the CCPA, the responsibilities it creates, and strategies to reduce the burden of compliance.

January 23: The End of Sanctions?

Following the 2015 amendments to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the amount of cases involving spoliation sanctions has plummeted. Today, cases involving discovery sanctions are only one third as common as they were during their peak in 2011 and 2012.

Are we seeing the end of sanctions? And if so, what effects is this having on the legal practice?

Join Logikcull and eDiscovery experts Craig Ball and Mira Edelman as we explore these topics, including a review of extensive new research on eDiscovery sanctions post-2015, key case laws, and emerging corporate discovery trends.

Speaker:
Judge Thomas I. Vanaskie was appointed to the Third Circuit Court in 2010, having served at the federal district court level in Scranton for 16 years prior. Over the course of his two decades on the bench, technology has dramatically reshaped how litigation is waged and disputes resolved. But Vanaskie has spearheaded efforts to keep the justice system up to speed. In 2005, he was selected by Chief Justice William Rehnquist to head the Information Technology Committee of the U.S. Judicial Conference, the policy making body for federal courts, a role he served until 2008. Judge Vanaskie may be best known in legal technology circles for authoring what is perhaps the most influential decision on the recovery of electronic discovery costs, Race Tires America.
