The Business Courts Benchbook — A Practical Discussion with the Authors: Episode 3
How are Court adjuncts and appointments selected in Business Courts? What are the qualifications of mediators and receivers? How do Business Courts use Special Masters to assist with discovery? In this third episode of our podcast series, we speak with Judge Christopher Yates from the Kent County, Michigan Circuit Court. Judge Yates is the co-chair of the ABA Section of Business Law’s Judges Initiative Committee and has served as one of the Section’s Business Court Representatives. Judge Yates provides practitioners with value insight based on his time serving as a Business Court judge, and how the use of Court adjuncts and appointments has changed in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.
