Many civil litigators pride themselves in their ability to sway a jury to their client’s version of a dispute, but what happens when there is no jury and issues of fact are tried directly to the judge? How should an effective advocate tailor the presentation to persuade the court and to take advantage of the efficiencies offered by a bench trial? How do motions in limine work if the judge has to see the evidence anyway? How does one avoid annoying the judge? Judges Shelley Russell and Eric Dahlin along with experienced advocate Cody Hoesly will present a one-hour primer on how to adapt your trial and pre-trial skills to the unique setting of a bench trial.
