James Carpenter to Speak on CBA Panel – “APEX Depositions: The Agonies & Ecstasies of Taking & Defending Deposition of a Company’s Top Execs”

Great drama and tension come together when one party gives notice it will be taking the deposition of its opponent’s President or CEO. In the profession, we call this an Apex deposition. An APEX deposition is one of the most critical and trying moments in business litigation—it is when a party subpoenas and uses the power of the Court and its rules to try to decapitate an opponent’s case by going after the corporation’s highest officer.

A flurry of opposing Motions is inevitable with the first motion designed to stop the process from going forward altogether. Legal costs rise quickly. This CLE is designed to help practitioners, at all levels of experience, navigate through the gauntlet of an Apex deposition’s trials and emotions. We will present the “nitty gritty” of the court rules that must be followed to bring or defend an Apex deposition and will provide practical tips and advice from experienced litigators.
