03.03.2026
1:00 – 2:30 p.m. ET

On March 3, 2026, Carol Sigmond co-presented “Discovery Requests in Construction Litigation: Proportionality Arguments and Reasonable Response Time Under Federal and State Rules,” a BARBRI webinar.

This webinar guided construction litigators in drafting discovery requests likely to withstand heightened judicial scrutiny under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(b) (and state rule equivalents) that require discovery be proportional to the needs of the case. The speakers also discussed strategies for making sustainable objections to discovery requests that are overly broad and burdensome in light of the needs of the case. Additionally, they reviewed strategies for producing documents and electronically stored information promptly as required by Rule 34(b) (and state rule equivalents).

BARBRI is the largest provider of legal learning solutions for law students, professionals, law schools, universities, law firms and organizations.
