The last decade has seen huge leaps in eDiscovery best practices, including in technology assisted review (TAR). This CLE will look at current best practices for conducting a review of large document collections, beyond simply using search terms. This will include determining the review scope, negotiating an ESI protocol, engaging in and knowing the limitations of a case assessment, working through the review, and handling privilege logs for large productions. It will couple a discussion of the practical mechanics of a document review with discussion of recent district court orders on the use of TAR/AI review tools.

This POWER Act session explores how attorneys entering pro bono work can support domestic violence victims and survivors within sovereign Tribal Nations. It examines the impact of domestic violence in Indigenous communities, including key statistics, warning signs, common obstacles to seeking help, and available resources for victims and their dependents.

The program addresses the significant disparities in domestic violence rates in Indian Country, highlighting why incidents are disproportionately high and how gaps in research and data contribute to challenges in shaping effective policy and funding strategies. It also considers the historical, jurisdictional, and cultural barriers that reinforce these inequities.

Participants will gain an in-depth understanding of relevant legal frameworks, including the Violence Against Women Act, 25 U.S.C. § 1304, and the Tribal Law and Order Act, 25 U.S.C. § 1302. The session also introduces the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW) movement, an Indigenous-led national effort to raise awareness and drive change.

Finally, the program outlines practical strategies for attorneys to get involved in a meaningful yet limited capacity, equipping them to contribute effectively to this critical area of need.

"ALGORITHM IS GONNA GET YOU: ANTITRUST RISKS WITH INFORMATION-SHARING SOFTWARE"

MATTHEW T. SCHOCK, Esq.
Baker Hostetler, LLP

WEBINAR ONLY

Antitrust lawsuits targeting information-sharing software have become prominent in the last several years. Private plaintiffs and government enforcers have targeted a variety of industries, including residential real estate, hotels, mortgage lending, and meat processing, alleging that the common use of information-sharing software by competitors violates the antitrust laws by facilitating “algorithmic price fixing.” This program provides background on those litigations, analyzes the legal framework under which they arise, and discusses their potential impact on both new and established information-sharing practices.
