On Wednesday, October 19, The New York City Bar Association has scheduled the Supreme Court Roundup: The Blockbuster Employment Law Decisions From 2011 & What Employment Lawyers Should Expect in the Coming Term.
The program starts at 6:00 and ends at 9:00 p.m. at the offices of the NYC Bar Association, 42 West 44th Street in Manhattan.
The employment-related decisions issued by the Supreme Court in the latest term are some of the most influential in years. These include Dukes v. Wal-Mart, AT&T Mobility v. Concepcion, Chamber of Commerce v. Whiting, Staub v. Proctor Hospital, Thompson v. North American Stainless, Kasten v. Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics, and NASA v. Nelson. These decisions have dramatically impacted the field of employment law, including in the areas of class action, arbitration, retaliation and methods of proof. The coming term also promises to be significant for employment law practitioners. Attendees will hear from a distinguished panel representing both the management and plaintiff bar, including Katherine H. Parker, Proskauer Rose LLP; Jyotin Hamid, Debevoise & Plimpton LLP; and Rebecca J. Osborne, Vladeck, Waldman, Elias & Engelhard P.C.
