Charlotte Litigation Member Neil Bloomfield was recently featured on the NCBA’s Litigation Section Blog.
Bloomfield’s article analyzes Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. v. Haeger and provides a summary of the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision which clarified that even a district court’s exercise of broad discretion to impose a civil sanction for a litigant’s bad faith conduct has to be limited by a causal link. Bloomfield stated, “the Court’s decision provides useful guidance, but leaves open interesting questions that litigants and district courts will be wrestling with for years to come.”
