Evidence and Discovery Issues in Employment Law
Access Timely Topics and National Experts with CBA-CLE 1-Hour Audio Webcasts
Program Description:
Claims of discrimination, harassment, or other bad conduct in the workplace are a fraught combination often involving ambition, strife, and emotion. This mix and the pervasive nature of electronic messaging and social media posting work to produce complicated issues in evidence generally and discovery specifically. What’s discoverable, from whom or what entity, and how it may be used are significantly complicated when technology is involved. This program will provide you with a practical guide to evidence and discovery issues in employment disputes.
- Social media evidence – how it can be discovered & when it can be used
- Discovery of electronically stored information and limitations on use
- Text messages – how to obtain them
- Evidentiary issues in discrimination and harassment claims
- Hearsay problems and how to overcome them
- “Cat’s Paw” theory evidence
- Use of motions in limine
