So what went on in the past week’s worth of electronic data discovery news?
EDD Update featured couple of whitepapers, a couple of webinars, some acquisitions and integrations... not a bad week, overall. Things are moving along in the EDD universe.
Sean Doherty contributed a link to this Legal Times article, “Discover New E-Worlds,” which I found very provocative. The article, by C.R. Ragan and Robert Copple, addresses the problem that European lawyers are getting a little irritated at American inefficiency when it comes to arbitration.
Ragan and Copple are members of The International Institute for
Conflict Prevention & Resolution, where they are both members of
the panels of neutrals and serve on the e-discovery committee. Ragan is
partner in California’s Redgrave Daley Ragan & Wagner; Robert F.
Copple is a partner in Copple & Associates in Arizona.
E-discovery is now, according to Ragan and Copple, “firmly established”
as part of the American litigation process -- for better or for worse:
Ragan and Copple write that “Discovery costs have long been a bane of
U.S. litigation.” The costs have been enough to drive more than a few
parties to settle out of court.
