Upcoming MCLE program on Comcast Corp. v. Behrend

On April 16, 2013 at noon Pacific, the Antitrust and Unfair Competition Law Section and the Labor and Employment Law Section of the State Bar of California will jointly present a webinar called "Comcast v. Behrend – View from the United States Supreme Court." 

The webinar should be very interesting.  It will feature the two attorneys who argued the case in the United States Supreme Court:  Barry Barnett of Susman Godfrey (for Ms. Behrend and the class) and Miguel Estrada of Gibson Dunn (for Comcast).  The moderator will be Christopher Handman of Hogan Lovells.

This is the program description:

Comcast v. Behrend is the latest word from the United States Supreme Court on class certification. Hear the attorneys who argued the case before the Supreme Court discuss the Court’s opinion – and the impact it will have on class action litigation.

Barry Barnett writes a weblog called Blawgletter where he had this post on the Comcast decision.  He says that he and his co-counsel "look forward to satisfying the Court's narrow methodological concerns on remand to the trial court and to trying the case on the merits as soon as practicable."
