These hearings have been commonplace in some counties for years and in others there has been a dramatic recent increase in attempts to cage our clients without bail pre-trial. Please only sign up if you can come to both sessions\, and they build on each other. \nThis training will include: \nPre-work: A few pre-recorded lectures on tips for litigating 58A hearings. \nDay One:  On the first afternoon we will have four live mini-lectures on topics like preserving testimony\, discovery cross\, documenting why conditions of release will work and dealing with priors. We will also work in small groups to brainstorm ways to apply these tools in our cases. Between Session One and Session Two you will prep for your portion of a mock 58A hearing. \nDay Two: The second afternoon will be on your feet time. You will practice putting these tools to work for your client’s benefit in a mock 58A hearing. We will also have a mini-lecture on appealing a 58A. \nWe will have to limit space to make sure the small group workshop time is the most productive\, so please sign up soon!  \n
