Hearing discovery motions is every judge’s least favorite activity; yet sometimes you must pursue a motion to compel to obtain discovery needed to prepare your case. This program explains how to effectively use motion practice, including the pre-filing requirement to meet and confer, in a way that will foster compromise to avoid filing the motion and render success on the motion more likely if compromise fails.
