Class Action
: The UCL PractitionerUpcoming MCLE program: "Class Action and UCL Conference"
By Kimberly A. Kralowec
Next Tuesday, July 15, 2008, my partner Miranda P. Kolbe will be speaking at Bridgeport Continuing Education's annual Class Action and UCL Conference, which will take place at San Francisco State University's Downtown Campus (835 Market Street). Her co-speaker is Erica L. Craven of Levy Ram & Olson, and their segment is called "17200 after Prop. 64 ? Who Won and Who Still has a Chance?"
Additionally, Judge Ronald M. Sabraw (Ret.) will speak on "The Nuts and Bolts of Settling a Class Action." That's a segment I'd like to see. The rest of the speakers will cover CAFA, class certification (with plaintiff and defense strategies), electronic discovery in class actions, the False Advertising Law (Bus. & Prof. Code sections 17500 et seq.) and the CLRA. Registration is still open and I encourage everyone to sign up to attend!
