Electronic Information in Criminal Investigations & Prosecutions 2015

The Practising Law Institute is holding a seminar regarding electronic information in criminal investigations and prosecutions on November 4.

Electronic information pervades our society. Not surprisingly, electronic information may be central to the investigation of criminal activity and to the prosecution and defense of that activity. The “use” of electronic information in criminal investigations and proceedings lead to many questions. Under what circumstances are search warrants required for electronic devices and information? How does the right against self-incrimination arise with regard to devices and information? How should discovery of electronic information be conducted? What are the limits of cooperation between prosecutors and defense counsel? How might electronic information be admitted at trial?

The faculty, which includes judges, prosecutors and defense counsel experienced in criminal investigations and proceedings, will answer these questions as they address the cutting edge issues surrounding electronic information in the investigation, prosecution and defense of crimes.

Nimi Aviad is a speaker at this event. His topic: "Fourth Amendment Issues in Criminal Investigations."
