VOLUME IS A PROBLEM

American Trial Lawyers Task Force on Discovery:Discovery:

“The discovery rules in particular areThe discovery rules in particular are impractical in that they promote full

discovery as a value above almost anything else”

8

EXPENSE IS A PROBLEM

Cartel Asset Mgt. v. Ocwen Financial Corporation,2009 WL 2242395 (D. Colo. 2009):

“The discovery process necessarily imposes burdensThe discovery process necessarily imposes burdens on the responding party”

Argument that certain discovery “would affect our profitability and ability to serve our clients” was “the

e-discovery equivalent of a claim that the ‘sky is y yfalling’”

SPOLIATION CLAIMS ARE A PROBLEMPROBLEM 39% of all recent ESI cases involve

spoliation claims Standards vary

Proof of deliberate, bad faith conduct (Fla.) Some evidence of intentional misconduct (Tex.) Negligence (NY)g g ( )
