John K. Rabiej served as the Deputy Director of the Bolch Judicial Institute for one year, and as the Director of the Duke Law Center for Judicial Studies for seven years. The Duke Law Center brings together judges, lawyers, researchers, government officials and other parties to advance the study and understanding of the judicial process and generate ideas for how it might be improved. During his time as the Director of the Duke Law Center, Mr. Rabiej studied the impact of technology on the judiciary, including analyzing his concerns that the courts are not keeping pace with the rapid advancement of technology in the culture at large. Prior to joining the Duke Law Center, Mr. Rabiej served as the Executive Director and Director of Judicial Outreach for The Sedona Conference; the Chief of the Rules Committee Support Office; and the American Law Institute. He presently sits on the Chief Justice’s Rules Advisory Commission, North Carolina (term ending December 31, 2023). In this episode of LegalCast, Mr. Rabiej discusses a legal bipartisan review of mass torts, class action, and the ever-expanding e-discovery quagmire that seems to be firmly embedded in complex litigation coming to a peak in 2022. Will the plaintiffs and defense leadership be able to collaborate to reign in the ever-expanding high cost of litigation? Mr. Rabiej has made a career of working to bring opposing groups together to discuss common interests as a means to increase efficiencies in litigations. And, with millions of dollars at stake, why not at least start the discussions.
