When an expert witness uses generative AI to review evidence or prepare a report, are the expert's prompts discoverable?

In Conservation Law Foundation, Inc. v. Shell Oil Co., a federal magistrate judge in Connecticut ordered a party to produce the prompts its expert used to filter documents for her analysis. The court's reasoning: an expert's methodology is fair game in discovery, and the AI-assisted filtering was part of her methodology. The order is stayed while the district court reviews it.

Either way, it's a warning for litigators and experts: what an expert types into an AI tool may be discoverable, and may come up on cross-examination. Preserving prompts, outputs, and session histories, disclosing AI use, and independently verifying every citation are quickly becoming standard practice.

When does a commute become compensable work time?

Two recent opinion letters from the U.S. Department of Labor’s Wage and Hour Division offer new guidance on how the Fair Labor Standards Act applies to commute and travel time—particularly for hybrid and field-based employees.

The guidance highlights an important distinction: voluntary flexibility and ordinary commuting generally support treating travel as unpaid time, while substantial required work before or during a trip, combined with employer control, may change the analysis.

For employers, this is an important reminder to review hybrid, dispatch, and field-service practices, clearly define when paid work begins, and ensure all hours actually worked are properly recorded.

When hundreds of remote employees are laid off, do they count as working at the same “site” under the WARN Act? A recent federal court decision shows the answer isn’t so simple.

In Dargon v. Xtend Healthcare, LLC, a federal court in Tennessee held that remote employees working from fixed home offices did not share a "single site of employment".

That distinction matters because the federal WARN Act generally requires covered employers to provide 60 days’ notice before certain mass layoffs or plant closings — but the requirements depend in part on how many employees are affected at a single site.

Courts are currently split on how these rules apply to fully remote workforces, and the Eleventh Circuit has not squarely resolved the issue.

For Georgia employers considering a reduction in force, Dargon may offer guidance — but relying on it isn’t without risk.

A new Fifth Circuit ruling could reshape a common defense in workplace harassment cases.

In EEOC v. SkyWest Airlines, Inc., the court held that a Title VII plaintiff seeking emotional-distress damages has no legal duty to mitigate those damages by seeking therapy, medication, or other treatment.

While the decision is binding only in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas, it could have implications beyond the Fifth Circuit. The Eleventh Circuit has not squarely decided the issue, making the ruling potentially persuasive authority in future cases in Georgia.

For employers, the takeaway is important: emotional-distress damages can still be challenged on issues like causation, severity, credibility, and documentation — but a plaintiff’s decision not to seek treatment may not be enough to reduce their recovery.
