Streamlining Litigation: Views from the Bench in Upstate New York

This program presents a unique and valuable opportunity to engage in dialogue with a panel of federal and state court judges from Upstate New York.  The panel will discuss litigation (with a focus on commercial litigation) and ways in which knowledge of the local and/or commercial rules and the preferences of the local bench can help make the process more efficient and more cost-effective. Discovery, motion practice, case management, alternative dispute resolution, and other related topics will be discussed.  All judges and location participants will be connected via live interactive video feed.
