The TBA YLD Rookie Series continues with a webcast on "Working with U.S. Magistrate Judges: Perspectives from East Tennessee" on Dec. 3 at 12 p.m. CST. Make plans now to join U.S. Magistrate Judges Mike Dumitru, Debra Poplin and Cynthia Wyrick for a panel moderated by TBA YLD Board member and East Tennessee CLE Chair Weslen Lakins. The judges will cover magistrate authority and consent in civil cases, and offer practical guidance on discovery referrals and dispute resolution, professionalism and courtroom/virtual etiquette, and written advocacy that resonates with the bench.
