The Commercial and Federal Litigation Section of the New York State Bar Association met yesterday at the Hilton in midtown Manhattan for a pair of panels exploring the future of commercial litigation in the state, with a heavy focus on recently proposed reforms to the Commercial Division.
The first panel, “The Chief Judge’s Taskforce Report on Commercial Litigation in the 21st Century: From Ideas to Implementation,” looked at how to execute some of the reforms to the Commercial Division proposed last June by the Taskforce on Commercial Litigation, convened by Chief Judge Jonathan Lippman nearly a year ago.
