ABA Learning E-Lesson in E-Discovery

The ABA announced their top 100 "Blawgs"in the December issue of the ABA Journal.  I was really pleased to see one of my favorite e-discovery blogs make the list.

E-Lessons Learned was founded by Seton Hall e-Discovery Law Professor  Fernando M. Pinguelo,  The blog is written and run by his law students.  Each post covers one case on e-discovery and the ( you guessed it ) "e-lesson learned," from it.  The most recent "e-lessons learned" have included the following:

e-Lesson Learned: Wikipedia entries cannot be used to prove important facts are true.

AND

e-Lesson Learned: The best evidence rule isn’t just for journals, photographs and computers anymore … that’s right, GPS units are now among the electronic devices required to be physically present or have original documentation to support the information taken from the device to be used in testimony.

Like The University of Florida with Ralph Losey, or New York Law School with Michael Dalewitz,it is refreshing to see future lawyers getting acclimated at the student level of this ever growing industry.
