The main early challenge for a company and its counsel in planning and doing electronic discovery in a complex case is understanding the location and volume of potentially relevant electronically stored information. <br /><br />This knowledge of the sources and volume of potentially relevant information is critical for three critical, inter-related reasons: (1) to meet the pretrial conference requirements of the new federal rules of civil procedure; (2) to get a reliable overview of the document landscape before large sums are spent; and (3) to be able to prove to the court and to opposing counsel the potential costs of various slices of potential discovery in order to negotiate or request the narrowing of discovery.<br /><br />The technology and process that Kirke Snyder’s paper describes can be a godsend.<br /><br />David K.
