This live webcast is also being simulcast as a teleconference for some of our participants. Because of this format there will be audio polling questions required for the teleconference audience. As a webcast attendee you do not answer these audio polling questions, however other polling may be required by your MCLE jurisdiction. If a random polling question appears at the top of your West LegalEdcenter screen, you must still respond to these prompts. Thank you for choosing West LegalEdcenter.
