SUMMARY:From Trial to Appeal: Effectively Preserving Error for Review
DESCRIPTION:This webinar will be a panel discussion with two seasoned appellate practitioners about preserving error for appellate review—a topic that can be deceptively simple but frequently trips up even experienced litigators.

Our goal is to sharpen your awareness of common pitfalls and practical strategies so that you can strengthen your trial practice and protect your record effectively for appellate review. \nTopics Include:\n\nWhat “preserving error” really means in practice\nWhy “preserving error” is critical for the appellate process\, including a standard of review discussion\nCommon mistakes trial lawyers make when attempting to preserve the record and how to avoid them\nNuances in preserving error in civil vs. criminal trials\nSpecial considerations for preserving error when using technology during trial\nPractical tips and best practices\n\nModerator\n\nCristina Rodriguez\, NAAG Program Counsel\n\nSpeakers\n\nDaniel Matzkin\, U.S. Attorney’s Office\, Southern District of Florida\, Chief of Appellate Division \nSarah Thorne\, Deputy Attorney General\, South Dakota Office of the Attorney General Division Director\, Appellate Division\n\n\nRegistration Deadline: July 16\, 2025\, 8:00 a.m. ET\nThis virtual training is a closed session for attorneys general and attorney general staff only. \n\nContinuing Legal Education (CLE)\nNAAG will apply for CLE for attendees eligible under CLE accrediting body guidelines. \nAccessibility Planning\nIf you identify as a person with a disability and would like to request reasonable accommodations for this event\, please complete the Accessibility Request Form

SUMMARY:AI and State Legal Practice: Implications for Assistant Attorneys General
DESCRIPTION:As artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and tools rapidly evolve\, their integration into state agency and government operations—and legal practice—will become increasingly widespread\, requiring enhanced state regulation and sound legal advice. \nDesigned for deputy or assistant attorneys general (AAGs) who represent state agencies/government or defend the state in litigation\, the 1.5-day training will: \n\nProvide a comprehensive overview of the latest developments in AI\, and\,\nCover current and future uses across state government functions\, including in-service delivery\, data analysis\, law enforcement\, and other areas.\n\nThe session will also examine the critical role assistant attorneys general play in advising agencies and state governments on the legal implications of AI use. From identifying potential risks to ensuring appropriate governance and accountability structures\, assistant attorneys general are uniquely positioned to shape responsible AI adoption within government. By the end of this training\, participants will be better prepared to navigate the intersection of law\, policy\, and emerging technology—and to ensure that AI use in state government remains transparent and legally sound. \nTopics will include: \n\nA primer on public sector AI\, including recent agency use-cases and regulatory efforts to govern state government use.\nAI governance through procurement and acquisition\nSpecific case studies\, such as use of facial recognition technology by law enforcement and agencies\, AI and public benefits\, and generative AI for government attorneys.\nPublic sector AI legal issues\n\nThis training is open to attorney general staff only. \n\nScholarship Nominations\nNominations are due May 19\, 2025.\n\nNAAG will provide a limited number of scholarships to selected participants.
