Pressemeldung des Massachusetts Superior Court.

The Massachusetts Superior Court?s Business Litigation Session (the BLS) will implement a Pilot Project on a voluntary basis beginning January 4, 2010 for all new cases in the BLS and all cases that have not previously had an initial Rule 16 case management conference. The BLS Pilot Project was developed as a result of (i) a joint effort of the BLS judges and the BLS Advisory Committee1 to address the increasing burden and cost of civil pretrial discovery, particularly electronic discovery, and (ii) release of the Final Report on the Joint Project of the American College of Trial Lawyers Task Force on Discovery and the Institute for the Advancement of the American Legal System dated March 11, 2009.

Yesterday I began what I thought would be a two-part series on compliance training.However, or perhaps more accurately, as usual, I got carried away so I am now off on a multi-part series on how to design, implement and assess an effective compliance and ethics training program. This series was inspired by an article in Slate, entitled “Ethics Trainings Are Even Dumber Than You Think”, by L.V. Anderson. Her article was generally dismissive of compliance and ethics training, panning it as a mere ‘check-the-box’ exercise so corporations could use it as a CYA defense if any government regulators ever came looking. In spite of her dismissive attitude, she did have some useful nuggets that you should incorporate into your Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) compliance program.

In a recent Slate article, entitled “Ethics Trainings Are Even Dumber Than You Think”, author L.V. Anderson railed against what she termed box-checking training where companies put on training not to actually train employees but simply to check the box that training has occurred. She also spoke against “dumbed-down nature of most compliance courses”.
