Top Five Steps to Prepare for the Ediscovery-Related Amendments to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure Plus Tips for Objections

By Kathryn Hughes | Monday, June 24, 2013

Coming today to LitigationWorld: The 2006 amendments to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure helped establish some best practices, but they didn't anticipate the explosion of electronic evidence and its associated costs and risks (e.g., Facebook had just opened its doors to people other than college students). To address the problems that have arisen, a new set of ediscovery amendments is working its way through the approval process. In this issue of LitigationWorld, ediscovery experts and lawyers Matthew Gillis and Nadine Weiskopf discuss what to expect, how to prepare, and the benefits of incorporating their advice now in advance of the new rules.

Predictive Coding Becomes More Complex While Traditional Ediscovery Software Becomes Cheaper Plus Motions in Limine

By Kathryn Hughes | Monday, June 3, 2013

Coming today to LitigationWorld: With judges approving the use of predictive coding, it seemed like this technology for quickly finding relevant discovery documents would soon become a standard. Therein lies the problem. As Tom O'Connor reports in this issue of LitigationWorld, fans of predictive coding can't decide how to standardize it so they have split into three camps. It's kind of like Betamax versus VHS. But fear not because Tom also has some good news about traditional ediscovery processing and review software. He points to some products that have changed their pricing models, thus becoming viable for use in small cases. Also, don't miss the LitigationWorld Pick of the Week for the benefits and risks of motions in limine.
