Summary judgment motion practice has long been a significant part of employment litigation. The Supreme Judicial Court’s recent decisions in Bulwer v. Mount Auburn Hospital and Verdrager v. Mintz Levin have significantly changed the landscape, particularly with regard to the disposition of summary judgment motions in employment discrimination claims. Hear an experienced plaintiff’s lawyer and experienced defense lawyer discuss strategies for drafting pleadings and conducting discovery in anticipation of filing—or defending against—a summary judgment motion. The faculty analyze how Bulwer and Verdrager impact strategy in filing—and even the decision of whether to file a summary judgment motion at all. Bring your questions to join the dialogue!
