LGN Attorneys Kate Baxter-Kauf and Rachel Kitze Collins attended the 2022 FBA Annual Federal Judges’ Dinner Dance at the Minikahda Club, held May 7, 2022. This annual event, sponsored by the Minnesota Chapter of the Federal Bar Association, brings together judges and practitioners from across the District of Minnesota.  

This webinar featured Judge Donovan Frank and leading MDL, class action, and mass action practitioners as they discussed the considerations that lead to some cases being litigated as MDLs and others as class or mass actions. Dan Gustafson, partner at GKate, a partner at Lockridge Grindal Nauen who practices primarily in the class action and data breach practice groups, serves on the District of Minnesota FBA chapter’s MDL, Class, and Mass Action committee. Rachel, an associate who practices in the firm’s environmental, business, political law, and employment groups, is an FBA member who previously clerked for the Honorable James B. Loken of the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit in Minneapolis. Many other LGN attorneys also participate on FBA committees and in events in the district.
