A live Webcast is available for the 2010 Civil Litigation Conference, sponsored by the Judicial Conference of the United States, and being held 10-11 May 2010 at Duke University Law School in Durham, North Carolina, USA.
The conference will focus on empirical research on U.S. federal civil litigation, including research on lawyers’ satisfaction with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, judicial decisions (Iqbal and Twombly and cases applying them) respecting pleading rules, ediscovery, the “vanishing trial”, incentives for settlement, and experimentation and proposals respecting civil litigation reform in U.S. states, including research conducted by the Institute for the Advancement of the American Legal System at the University of Denver (IAALS).
