Event Description

An HCBA Signature Program, Hosted by the Civil Litigation Section.  Sponsored by Taft Law

In an effort to improve ties between the bench and bar and to deliver better, more efficient results for litigants, the Civil Bench of Hennepin County and the Civil Litigation Section are hosting a roundtable style CLE and social.

The Bench is particularly interested in hearing from civil practitioners on the topic of Zoom vs. In Person Appearances: what hearing types do you like remote or in person and why? Should chambers take the lead or would you prefer to contact chambers to request a particular option? Members of the bar will also be leading a conversation on fostering settlements and mediation scheduling.

This event will also include time for socializing outside of the CLE portion and will includes beverages and heavy hors d'oeuvres. A special thanks to the Civil Litigation Section for sponsoring refreshments for this event.
