Upcoming Live Presentations
Enforcing Washington Discovery Obligations Through Sanctions, Contempt, and Fee-Shifting
Video only available during live webinar
July 22, 2026
Presented by:
Brad Moore,
1 Law & Legal Pending
This presentation uses a recent King County Superior Court discovery enforcement sequence—an order compelling “full and complete” responses, a subsequent contempt finding, a monetary sanction payable to the Foundation for Washington State Courts, and a lodestar fee award—as a practical case study in how Washington’s discovery rules and sanctions framework operate in real litigation.1 It is written as a practitioner’s roadmap: how to build a record, how to frame the legal standards, what remedies to request, and how to support a fee petition once the court grants sanctions.
