111420 - second letter was to submit notice of a seminar on the practice of law
111421 - and applying TQM "re-engineering" ideas, ref SDS 8 4922.  I applied
111422 - this idea to "Feel Good" management and opportunity to improve
111423 - management using SDS, including the discussion with Stan Mosk on
111424 - discovery, ref DIP 4 6283 (see analysis at ref SDS 8 3883.

2618 - 0548 Anne called back
2619 -   ..
261901 - She said KHLS broke up because of deterioriating working
261902 - relations among the partners due to poor communication.
261903 -
261904 -    We did not discuss KHLS' work practices that could have been
261905 -    improved by "reengineering" with SDS, per discussion with Russ on
261906 -    931103. ref SDS 2 9309
261907 -
261908 -    On 950605 Anne complained that productivity of daily legal practice
261909 -    suffers from miscommunication, arguing about who said what at the

261931 - Reengineering the Practice of Law, Discovery
261932 -
261933 - There seems to be nothing on this subject which is the source
261934 - tremendous cost and controversy.  It should be an ideal target of
261935 - "reengineering," particularly with respect to using SDS records, per
261936 - discussion with Stan Mosk, ref SDS 1 0000.
261937 -
261938 -    We did not discuss this today.
