Discovery remains one of the most challenging and risk-laden aspects of federal practice. Our clients hate the work and expense of responding to discovery requests because it seems to be the opposite of working to win the case. We like sending requests but hate the tedious business of writing the requests and the even more tedious business of responding. But like many things that are not that much fun, sending and responding to discovery requests is important. Missteps in scope, preservation, privilege logging, or objections can expose lawyers to sanctions, undermine client relationships, and raise serious ethical concerns. This 60-minute CLE provides trial lawyers, in-house counsel, and federal practitioners with the tools to navigate discovery obligations under both the ABA Model Rules of Professional Conduct and the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.
Special attention will be given to preservation letters and litigation holds, including the duty to preserve client and third-party records once litigation is reasonably anticipated, and the consequences of spoliation under Rule 37(e).
