Litigation Forecast Webinar - Emerging Technologies and the Law

Event | 06.24.14, 12:00 AM UTC - 12:00 AM UTC

Our ever-growing digital world and rapidly-developing new technologies present both opportunities and challenges. Technology can provide businesses with significant advantages, whether it is used to enhance growth and efficiency, communicate with customers and employees, or control discovery costs in litigation. Yet, implementing sound policies and practices is critical for reaping the benefits of technology while minimizing the risks.
 
This webinar will examine:

  • Emerging and evolving legal standards associated with business-related use of social media and the role of social media in litigation.
  • Best practices for adopting and administering Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) programs, including protecting intellectual property and other business information as well as complying with labor/employment regulations and electronic discovery obligations.  
  • Using technology-assisted review (predictive coding) to significantly reduce e-discovery burdens and expense and gain tactical advantage in litigation.

This webinar begins at 2:00 PM Eastern time.

Has the Buss Stopped? Recoupment Today

Has the Buss Stopped? Recoupment Today: In 1997, the California Supreme Court decided Buss v. Superior Court. In Buss, the court concluded that a liability insurer that defended a mixed action could seek reimbursement from the insured for the defense costs associated with the claims that were not even potentially covered. Since then, numerous courts have held that insurers are entitled to recoup their defense costs associated with uncovered claims or causes of action. On the other hand, a significant number of courts have rejected insurers’ right to recoupment, at least in the absence of a policy provision granting the insurer that right. Some commentators have even suggested that the current judicial trend might be away from permitting insurers to recoup their defense costs. Is that correct? Has the Buss stopped? This panel of coverage experts will analyze insurers’ claimed right to recoupment today, and offer their perspectives on what the law on recoupment should perhaps be and might be in the future.
