The International Legal Technology Association announced it has appointed Joy Heath Rush, the former vice president of client development at Litera Microsystems, as its new interim CEO.

The appointment comes almost two months after the resignation of former CEO Dan Liutikas, who was at the center of the contentious 2017 firing of three longtime members of ILTA’s executive team—Clay Gibney, Deb Himsel and Peggy Wechsler.
