“A Wisconsin lawyer has informed a federal court that he and his client missed a June 6 deposition because the email notice went to the lawyer’s junk email folder. The lawyer, Stan Davis of the Davis Group in Madison, argues that dismissal of his client’s suit against the University of Wisconsin is too draconian a remedy, the GazetteXtra reports. Davis says that, when he became aware of the problem, he offered to reschedule the deposition within the week left for discovery, but a lawyer for the state said she would not be available.”
