Quick question — SWAT raid case?
10:47 AMDavid Wilson <d.wilson@ij.org>
to Sarah Mitchell
Hey Sarah,
Can you tell me what the latest update is in the SWAT raid case? I have a donor meeting tomorrow and need to reference where things stand. Is it still in discovery? Did the motion get decided?
Also — who's the lead attorney on it now? I think there was a staffing change but I'm not sure.
Sorry to bother you, I know you're busy with the Johnson hearing.
Thanks,
David
Stop answering the same questions
Sound familiar? Emails like this pull attorneys away from real work every day. When case information is locked in someone's head — or buried in a thread — everyone else has to ask. The LMS puts answers where people can find them on their own.
Case status, recent rulings, assigned staff, upcoming dates — all of it is available in the LMS to anyone with access. Development staff preparing for a donor meeting can look it up in seconds instead of interrupting attorneys in the middle of trial prep.
- Self-service access to case status, staff, and key dates
- No more 'quick question' emails that break focus
- Development and communications teams find what they need independently
- Attorneys stay focused on litigation, not status updates
