Synopsis

The E-Discovery amendments to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure made changes to discovery rules to make it easier for courts and litigating parties to manage electronic records and became effective in December 2006. Paul (a partner in the Business Litigation Section of Lewis and Roca LLP) and Nearon (director of the IT Security Auditing practice of J.H. Cohn LLP) offer guidance on these new rules in chapters that address preservation of evidence and sanctions for spoliation, changes connected to the Rule 26(f) conference, issues regarding form of production, the issue of accessibility, evolving case law on cost shifting and regulations regarding accessibility, the new retrieval procedure, and the new safe harbor provision.
