This excellent CLE presentation addresses the age-old, frustrating discovery game of wading through countless frivolous objections, Interrogatories, and Request for Production. This program provides a summary of the Texas law prohibiting this gamesmanship, along with forms for a “Meet and Confer” letter and a Motion to Compel, with all of the necessary briefing. The course is specifically designed to be extremely practical and time-saving for both lawyers and judges. This CLE course features streaming video and downloadable audio presentations from a seminar by the Houston Bar Association (HBA) on August 12, 2022.
