If you think lawyers can only risk sanctions for legal or ethical mistakes, think again. Judges can impose sanctions on clients and their lawyers simply for e-discovery breakdowns, even when the cause is not (yet) known. Just ask the former lawyers for Qualcomm.
The Legal Technology Leadership Summit at Amelia Island, Florida, from September 6 – 8, will feature a panel that reconsiders the sanctioning of Qualcomm and six of its attorneys, and the ensuing two-plus-year legal battle to have the sanctions order vacated, as it ultimately was. The panel will feature Adam Bier, one of the “Qualcomm Six,” and Frank Cialone, a lawyer who represented two other former lawyers for Qualcomm.
