Episode 61 - Lessons from the Front Lines: A Judge’s All-In-One Guide to the Right (and Wrong) Way to Make Deposition Objections

Episode #61

In this Lessons from the Front Lines episode - where we review brand-new deposition-related cases from around the country - Jim Garrity discusses a new ruling that belongs in your research files (and in your briefcase at depositions) on the right and wrong way to make depositions. The opinion, written by a relatively new federal magistrate who took great pains to catalog cases on this topic, contains more than fifty citations to authority from around the country. So it's an excellent opinion to pull out when opposing counsel starts to make obviously-improper objections during your examinations.
