TOPIC: Office of Alcohol Testing (OAT)-New eDiscovery Portal
Dear Bar Association Members,
Please join us on Thursday, April 1, 2021 from 4:00 to 5:00 for a training by the Office of Alcohol Testing (OAT) on their new eDiscovery Portal.
As a result of the Ananias litigation, the Office of Alcohol Testing created their new eDiscovery Portal where attorneys can access OAT information online. Please join us as OAT staff members explain the portal and instruct attorneys how to access the information on it. This is a must training for defense counsel handling alcohol-related offenses.
Please reach out to Executive Director Virginia O’Riordan at admin@norfolkbarassn.org to register and receive the Zoom log in information.
I hope to see you on the 1st.
Sincerely,
Peggie Krippendorf, President,
Bar Association of Norfolk County
