Navigation Third Circuit talks pandemic ups, downs
.
There may be less in-person contact among clients, courts, and lawyers in the Third Judicial Circuit because of the COVID-19 pandemic, but there’s more, quicker, and less tense electronic and online communications.
“We’re more connected than ever,” said Rachel Butler, who represents the Third Circuit on the Young Lawyers Division Board of Governors. “The response time from clients and the judiciary and opposing counsel has been a lot quicker. Things have been moving faster; not necessarily on jury trials but nonjury trials are settling.”
