HIPLA Luncheon on Electronic Discovery

01/22/2009 14:28

I attended a presentation from Mary Lou Flynn-DuPart of Jackson Walker LLP today.  This was a HIPLA-sponsored luncheon with the topic of electronic discovery, a heightened area of interest for me, given my background in efficiency management.  A couple of good tips: parcel the work up by custodian, rather than just breaking it up piecemeal.  In other words, better to play man-to-man than zone when reviewing documents.  Also, watch for time stamps, especially when collecting overseas discovery or coast-to-coast as many of the e-discovery software programs arrange by embedded local time-stamp rather than GMT. 

Don't forget to build a snatch-back clause in your protective order for discovery so even the federal cases won't get away from you.

As of January 31st, the presentation hasn't been posted yet.  But when it is posted, it will be here.

Seth Jaffe

Are you on Google looking for Seth Jaffe? Or perhaps Seth E. Jaffe or even Seth Elliott Jaffe? You have found me in Houston, Texas working at NASA Johnson Space Center. Seth E. Jaffe is an aerospace engineer, photographer, and law student. Seth E. Jaffe and Seth Jaffe attended Casady High School in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma graduating in 1989. Soon after he attended Davidson College in Davidson, North Carolina. He graduated in 1996 from University of Texas at Austin with a degree in Aerospace Engineering.  He also attended Rice University were he studied Portuguese.  This little write-up has served to help Google and all of the rest of the crawling search engines find me so that I may turn up in your web search for me as opposed to the actor or the environmental attorney--both of whom have stolen my name. Happy hunting.
