IM-PECK-ABLE
Magistrate Judge Andrew Peck, who serves on the U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York, has been quite active in drafting e-discovery
rulings, such as March's William A. Gross
Construction Associates, Inc. v. American Manufacturers Mutual Insurance
Co. and Anti-Monopoly,
Inc. v. Hasbro, Inc. -- both establishing important guidance for the
creation keywords for searching electronically stored information. (See here, here, and here.)
But did you know that Peck also has written a reference book on all things Sherlock Holmes? Or that he drives to work (unusual for a Manhattanite). And you probably won't be surprised to see that he and I share the same favorite website. After all, he lives in New York City!
Check it out here in the October issue of Law Technology News.





Monica you're one of the most well informed professionals in this business; I'm wondering as I continue to read about Andrew Peck defining rules for key words, which at this point in time is ridiculous given the advancements in search.
Last week I saw a demo of a NLP Search technology that I could not believe existed and can not believe it's not everywhere.
Why don't I ever hear about Cognition Technologies? www.cognition.com
It's odd-is everyone still to invested in huge amounts of data to review? Because if not this is the soluion.
I look forward to hearing more about Cognition.
