Description
The discoverability of electronically stored information in the U.S. has profoundly altered how companies must manage data in preparation for and during litigation. In recent years, legal decisions that expand the definition of electronic data, and the penalties for mishandling it, underline the continuing evolution in this area of the law. When business activity spans national boundaries, counsel must be cautious about the implications of sharing information across countries, and understand the impact of regulations that can lead to unexpected consequences, or come into conflict with one another.
What you will learn:
We will examine the following topics as they relate to the handling of electronic evidence in the U.S., United Kingdom, and European countries:
- Differing perspectives on data and evidence in litigation
- Approaches and limitations to discovery
- Data protection considerations
- Danger areas
