The CEO’s Chatbot History At Trial: More Lessons in AI Evidence and Governance
In Fortis Advisors, LLC v. Krafton, Inc., 354 A.3d 906 (Del. Ch. 2026), Vice Chancellor Lori W. Will relied on a CEO’s ChatGPT queries and implementation of the chatbot’s advice to establish motive and pretext in a breach of contract dispute. The case highlights the evidentiary significance of AI use, which can establish state of mind in real time and underscores the need for robust AI governance and preservation protocols.
Another Round on DEI: EO 14398 Targets Race-Based Discrimination and Expands Compliance Obligations for Federal Contractors
On March 26, 2026, the administration issued Executive Order 14398, “Addressing DEI Discrimination by Federal Contractors” (the “Order” or “EO 14398”), reinforcing Executive Orders issued in January 2025—particularly Executive Order 14173, "Ending Illegal Discrimination and Restoring Merit-Based Opportunity" (January 21, 2025), which revoked Executive Order 11246’s longstanding affirmative action requirements for federal contractors.
DSARs Decoded: A US Employer’s Guide to Employee Data Requests
How must employers respond when an employee seeks to access, delete, or control personal information the employer maintains about them? Since the introduction of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), an individual’s rights to request access to, correction to, or deletion of their personal data (DSARs, or “data subject access requests”) have become a topic of strategic importance for global businesses.
SCOTUS Rejects Unique Proof Standards for Reverse Discrimination Plaintiffs | JD Supra
On June 5, 2025, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a unanimous decision in Ames v. Ohio Department of Youth Services, holding that courts may not impose heightened evidentiary requirements on Title VII plaintiffs simply because they are members of a majority group. The ruling resolves a circuit split and confirms that Title VII’s protections apply uniformly to any individual—majority or minority—alleging discrimination based on a protected trait.
Disparate Impact Under Fire: What EO 14281 Means for Equal Opportunity | JD Supra
Since the 1970s, federal civil rights statutes—and many state analogues—have imposed liability for ‘disparate impact’: when facially neutral policies disproportionately harm protected groups. Liability can attach even without evidence of conscious discriminatory intent, though employers are not liable where a policy’s adverse effect is justified by business necessity.
To Drive Diversity Efforts, Don’t Tiptoe Around Your Legal Risk
Many DEI initiatives are scuttled because DEI leaders and legal teams feel themselves to be at odds over questions of acceptable risk. DEI leaders see lawyers as guardians of the status quo, whereas legal experts, trained to anticipate the worst, believe they are protecting the company from legal risk. However, as the authors point out, businesses routinely choose to accept significant legal risk. In most situations they’re confronted with a risk-reward calculus that’s easy to quantify.
To Drive Diversity Efforts, Don’t Tiptoe Around Your Legal Risk
Idea in Brief The Problem Many DEI initiatives are scuttled because DEI leaders and legal teams feel themselves to be at odds over questions of acceptable risk. Working in a murky legal environment, both groups engage only at the last minute, when they have to. What Everybody Forgets Businesses routinely choose to accept significant legal risk. In most situations they’re confronted with a risk-reward calculus that’s easy to quantify and conceptualize.

Showing up, not dumbing down
In the wake of the gun massacre during Shabbat services at a Pittsburgh synagogue, we’re all (including me) about to #ShowUpForShabbat. Good … provided we resist the urge to oversimplify what happened at Tree of Life last weekend. I’ve been struggling with what “Show Up For Shabbat” means.
Silence on Farrakhan -- A bridge too far for the Women's March
There is a time to engage in diplomacy and a time to interrupt spaces, I learned during my crash course in activism following the 2016 election. This lesson, though fraught in implementation, is an important one to apply to Jewish issues. I’ve been open about my support for #BlackLivesMatter and the Movement for Black Lives, even throughout the controversy surrounding their inclusion of anti-Zionist rhetoric in a foundational document.
Make shul 'home' for young adults and children
“Do them a favor and take them home. They’ll be happier there!” A congregant graced me with this casual (and clearly well-intentioned) comment as I wrangled my crying 3-year-old in the hall, my 1-year-old quietly climbing the bima stairs a few yards away with another little friend, as a post-services discussion panel was about to start. I put my parenting challenge of the moment on a brief pause. “No — we want to be a part of this,” I responded, attempting to achieve a polite but firm tone.
