What if someone attends an interview with a lawyer? How long should we give an employee before asking for a response to allegations? There is often no simple answer. A number of factors are relevant in determining whether there has been procedural fairness.

This panel will focus on how judges and in-house counsel can work together to drive efficiency in our sometimes-byzantine litigation system, while retaining our profession's high ethical standards. From basic case management to better use of technology, courts have the same interests as in-house counsel, namely to drive better legal outcomes more efficiently. However, judges usually only hear from the outside bar, rather than corporate counsel who share their interest in timely, ethical and efficient resolution of legal matters. Join this panel of business court judges from around the United States to exchange thoughts about how the US litigation system can improve and how you can supervise litigation more effectively, while ensuring that you comply with relevant ethics rules, such as ABA Model Rules 1.1, and 3.2, among many others.
