Much has been said about the “New Normal” that the COVID-1 pandemic has brought to litigation. However, the rules of discovery have not changed as much and now is a good time to review the fundamentals of U.S. discovery and how in-house counsel can help prepare their organizations for U.S. discovery even under “New Normal” conditions. In our discussion, we will review some recent case law related to discovery issues from a Japanese corporate perspective. In Part XNUMX, you can watch the lecture by Squire Patton Boggs's David Yaegashi and Andrew Fields.
