On April 10-11, 2014 the results of a multi-year process to amend the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure will be decided. The Advisory Committee on Rules of Civil Procedure is meeting to approve amendments designed to expedite cases and lower the burden and costs on litigants.

What changes are coming to the FRCP and what will it mean when they go into effect as early as December 2015? This interactive webinar will feature experts who were actively engaged in the rule-making process.

In this interactive webinar, we will cover:

  • Insights on rules changes from the plaintiff, defendant, and bench perspectives
  • The potential effect on case management
  • How proportionality laid out in Rule 26 creates a level playing field
  • New potential standards regarding spoliation under Rule 37(e)
  • How your litigation and e-discovery strategies should evolve
