Subchapter V and Virtual Court: A Tale of Two Frontiers

The Small Business Reorganization Act of 2019 went into effect a mere few weeks before a worldwide pandemic unfolded, setting into motion unforeseen challenges and learning curves for the entire bankruptcy court system.

During the mock presentations, a team of technology experts will interject real-time, practical tips on the risks, benefits and potential ethical pitfalls of technology use in virtual trials, and much more. Mock Trial Schedule: 1:00-2:30 p.m. — Pre-Trial: Preparation, Organization, Depositions, Direct Examination (with tech experts offering best practices throughout) 2:30-2:50 p.m. — Short Break - Breakout rooms available for networking! 2:50-4:15 p.m. — Mock Trial: Cross-Examination, Cramdown (with tech experts offering best practices throughout)
