Webinars in this Series:
Enforcement: Post-Judgment Proceedings & Collections
In this webinar a panel of experienced appellate litigators explore many questions around the rules and procedures that govern appellate practice, how appellate briefs differ from those filed with trial court and keys to making them successful.
Anatomy of a Trial
This webinar focuses on the “nuts and bolts” of a civil trial. Panelists discuss witness preparation, the selection and presentation of exhibits, motions in limine, opening statements, direct and cross-examination, and closing arguments.
Discovery Practice
This webinar episode begins with a summary of the rules governing discovery. In particular, we discuss the federal rules governing the preservation and discovery of electronic data and information, and the concept of “proportionality” in discovery.
Dispositive Motions
This webinar episode covers a look at motions to dismiss, with focus on the Twombly-Igbal standard and how to put that into practice. Then we discuss summary judgment motions, from brief writing to filing cross-motion for summary judment.
TROs and Preliminary Injunctions
The topics discussed in this webinar include the procedural and substantive requirements for obtaining TROs and preliminary injunctions, best practices for succeeding on motions seeking TROs and preliminary injunctions, and how to challenge and defeat those motions.
