SUMMARY:Zoning Webinar – Free Live For IMLA Members
DESCRIPTION:Regulating Pickleball Noise: Legal Strategies to Avoid Controversy in City Hall and the Community\nCLE available to Kitchen Sink Subscribers and in some cases to others but fees may apply. \nToo often cities are becoming embroiled in raucous public meetings\, adverse publicity\, and lawsuits due to conflict between pickleball players and residential neighbors.  We will review the rapid growth and genuine benefits of pickleball as a recreation for your city.  We give a brief introduction to acoustic sciences and why this noise is different from tennis and genuinely annoying to the neighbors.  The shortfalls in the typical noise enforcement ordinances are explained\, as well as why pickleball noise is so difficult to quantify with a decibel meter.  We will review litigation examples around the county as municipalities defend themselves from poor planning choices.  We discuss the range of costly and difficult after-the-fact mitigation solutions such as noise barrier walls\, limiting hours of play\, and attempts to mandate quiet equipment.  We review some of the zoning\, planning and permitting ordinances adopted in recent years as cities learn to avoid a problem that is so difficult to correct once the mistake has been made. \nSpeaker: Charles Leahy\, Rob Mastroianni & Kathleen Romito

SUMMARY:Evaluating Emotional Distress Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Quantifying the Unseen: Scientific Evaluation of Mental Anguish and Emotional Distress\nIn today’s complex legal landscape\, accurately evaluating mental anguish and emotional distress is essential. This talk will delve into scientific methodologies for assessing emotional suffering\, focusing on the Quality-Adjusted Life Years (QALY) metric. This approach\, grounded in medical and behavioral science research\, provides a robust\, science-based framework that meets the rigorous Daubert standard for admissible evidence. Key topics include defining mental anguish\, overcoming subjective evaluation challenges\, and seamlessly integrating quantitative and qualitative data. Through compelling real-world examples and case studies\, attendees will see these concepts in action. For lawyers\, this approach translates to more precise\, objective\, and defensible evaluations of mental distress\, ensuring fairer outcomes in court. By adopting QALY\, legal professionals can argue for just compensation with greater authority and confidence. Join us to enhance your practice\, impress judges and juries\, and better serve your clients with cutting-edge\, scientifically validated tools.
