Opening plenary | Remote public access: June 2024 update on common redaction and ethics questions (qualifies for 1.2 ethics hours)

---

It has been almost a year since the opening of Case.net to the public by remote public access, but lawyers still have important questions about complying with the redaction requirements. This updated CLE will provide practical guidance to lawyers on common redaction questions. Through a series of scenarios, the redaction requirements will be applied to assist lawyers in understanding their obligations. Additionally, common ethics questions related to redaction issues will be discussed. 
Attendees will:

• Gain a better understanding of what information is subject to the redaction requirements.
• Gain a better understanding of the mechanics of how Case.net works, including security levels and document types.
• Gain a better understanding of the ethical issues of proper redaction practices pursuant to the Missouri Rules of Professional Conduct.

Speakers: Hon. Jeffrey W. Bates, Missouri Court of Appeals, Springfield; Melinda J. Bentley, Legal Ethics Counsel, Jefferson City
