Summary:
On October 8, 2020, the Hawaii Supreme Court provided eDiscovery Guidelines, recommending that parties resolve ESI disputes without Court Intervention.
On January 16, 2020, the US District Court Hawaii, provided eDiscovery Rule 26 (f) Checklists:
“These are court approved and counsel should consult them at the beginning of every case involving e-discovery. All counsel are expected to review the Guidelines.”
ABA Model Rule 1.1: An attorney cannot competently represent a client in these proceedings without having a fundamental understanding of the relevant technologies when undertaking electronic discovery. Failure to do so could result in ethical violations, malpractice claims and judicial sanctions:
Millions in sanctions wouldn’t be proportional in a case worth only $20,000, right? Wrong. In Klipsch Group, Inc. v. ePRO E-Commerce Ltd., Nos. 16-3637-cv, 16-3726-cv (2d Cir. Jan. 25, 2018), the Second Circuit upheld a $2.7 million sanction against ePRO for its repeated and willful discovery misconduct
We will address defensible processes in identifying, preserving and collecting ESI and demonstrate the efficiencies of eDiscovery Review Software
eDiscovery Review Software
• Cloud based, so no purchase required. “Pay as you go” scenario.
• Costs as low as $15 per gb per month.
• Can be used for cases as small as 1000 email.
• Searching by email metadata (to, from, subject, dates) increases doc review rates by twice that of reviewing paper or PDFs.
• Use of Early Case Assessment features can cull out non-responsive email by the email domains, reducing the number of documents required for review.
• Easy to produce Bates Numbered PDFs in standard ESI format.
• Easy to generate a Privilege Report without having to manually enter document info.
• Adheres to both State and Federal eDiscovery Guidelines
