Collection and Preservation - May 7, 2020

Emerging Data Sources - Best Practices for Collection and Preservation

Sponsored by Corporate Counsel Business Journal and  Consilio
MCLE Provider status is uncertain

Whether it’s cloud storage, “smart” devices in the home, fitness wearables, social media, or chat applications, there are too many data streams for counsel to singlehandedly manage. Yet they are ethically obligated to stay on top of these emerging data sources and develop effective strategies for dealing with the information that their clients generate.  This program will explain the complexities associated with the identification of potentially relevant information from these emerging sources, as well as the challenges of defensibly collecting data from them. Our experts will also suggest practical advice for defensible, cost-effective workflows for identification, preservation, and collection.  Speakers: Robert Fried, Senior Director Consilio David Grant, Deputy General Counsel Consilio Warren Kruse, Vice President Consilio

Government Authority to Fight COVID-19 - May 12, 2020

Federalism: Friend or Foe? Federal & State Authority to Fight COVID-19

Sponsored by The American Constitution Society
CA MCLE Provider no. 14004

In the absence of a clear, national strategy to combat the COVID-19 health crisis, some state and local leaders closed schools and non-essential businesses, issued stay-at-home orders, mandated moratoriums on evictions, and dispensed emergency vouchers to help people buy food, while others initially resisted such actions. As the shutdown drags on and the economic impact of the pandemic becomes its own crisis, some are now deciding to lift their stay-at-home orders before others believe it is safe to do so. President Trump has claimed “total authority” to supersede state directives, while the Attorney General is considering litigation against governors who want to retain lockdowns longer than the administration believes necessary. How does the Constitution divide decision-making authority in a public health crisis between the federal and state governments? Can the administration force states to follow its lead? What does the patchwork of state responses mean for our national recovery (both health and economic)? Ultimately, is our federal system an advantage or disadvantage in the fight against COVID-19?
