Book excerpt: E-discovery refers generally to the process by which one party (for example, the plaintiff) is entitled to discover evidence in the form of electronically stored information that is held by another party (for example, the defendant), and that is relevant to some matter that is the subject of civil litigation (that is, what is commonly called a "lawsuit").

Download or read book EDiscovery Plain Simple written by Allison Brecher and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2009 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We communicate, transact business, and socialize electronically as never before, so it's no surprise that virtually all business records are created and kept in electronic form. That electronic data resides everywhere - - on computers, Blackberries and portable devices, servers, backup tapes. When organizations and individuals reasonably anticipate litigation, they are under an obligation to preserve all relevant electronically stored information, but with the tangled web of electronic data that is stored in so many places (often subject to conflicting rules and laws about the storage of that data), it is very difficult to understand the legal obligations and implement them. E-discovery Plain & Simple discusses the world of electronically stored information and discovery through the viewpoints of two international experts in this field, an attorney and information technology consultant. This book explains technology and the legal issues involved in how we communicate and store electronic information in a "plain English" fashion, with charts, checklists, simple images and diagrams that are designed for readers with little, if any, information technology background. E-Discovery Plain & Simple is a key source of information for attorneys; corporate legal and compliance departments; small business owners and those who assist them who need to understand their legal obligations in this area and have them explained in clearly and concisely.

Download or read book E discovery Creating and Managing an Enterprisewide Program written by Karen A. Schuler and published by Syngress. This book was released on 2011-04-18 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the hottest topics in computer forensics today, electronic discovery (e-discovery) is the process by which parties involved in litigation respond to requests to produce electronically stored information (ESI). According to the 2007 Socha-Gelbmann Electronic Discovery Survey, it is now a $2 billion industry, a 60% increase from 2004, projected to double by 2009. The core reason for the explosion of e-discovery is sheer volume; evidence is digital and 75% of modern day lawsuits entail e-discovery.A recent survey reports that U.S. companies face an average of 305 pending lawsuits internationally. For large U.S. companies ($1 billion or more in revenue)that number has soared to 556 on average, with an average of 50 new disputes emerging each year for nearly half of them. To properly manage the role of digital information in an investigative or legal setting, an enterprise--whether it is a Fortune 500 company, a small accounting firm or a vast government agency--must develop an effective electronic discovery program. Since the amendments to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, which took effect in December 2006, it is even more vital that the lifecycle of electronically stored information be understood and properly managed to avoid risks and costly mistakes. This books holds the keys to success for systems administrators, information security and other IT department personnel who are charged with aiding the e-discovery process. - Comprehensive resource for corporate technologists, records managers, consultants, and legal team members to the e-discovery process, with information unavailable anywhere else - Offers a detailed understanding of key industry trends, especially the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, that are driving the adoption of e-discovery programs - Includes vital project management metrics to help monitor workflow, gauge costs and speed the process

Download or read book On Design and Evaluation of High recall Retrieval Systems for Electronic Discovery written by Adam Roegiest and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High-recall retrieval is an information retrieval task model where the goal is to identify, for human consumption, all, or as many as practicable, documents relevant to a particular information need. This thesis investigates the ways in which one can evaluate high-recall retrieval systems and explores several design considerations that should be accounted for when designing such systems for electronic discovery. The primary contribution of this work is a framework for conducting high-recall retrieval experimentation in a controlled and repeatable way. This framework builds upon lessons learned from similar tasks to facilitate the use of retrieval systems on collections that cannot be distributed due to the sensitivity or privacy of the material contained within. Accordingly, a Web API is used to distribute document collections, informations needs, and corresponding relevance assessments in a one-document-at-a-time manner. Validation is conducted through the successful deployment of this architecture in the 2015 TREC Total Recall track over the live Web and in controlled environments. Using the runs submitted to the Total Recall track and other test collections, we explore the efficacy of a variety of new and existing effectiveness measures to high-recall retrieval tasks. We find that summarizing the trade-off between recall and the effort required to attain that recall is a non-trivial task and that several measures are sensitive to properties of the test collections themselves. We conclude that the gain curve, a de facto standard, and variants of the gain curve are the most robust to variations in test collection properties and the evaluation of high-recall systems. This thesis also explores the effect that non-authoritative, surrogate assessors can have when training machine learning algorithms. Contrary to popular thought, we find that surrogate assessors appear to be inferior to authoritative assessors due to differences of opinion rather than innate inferiority in their ability to identify relevance. Furthermore, we show that several techniques for diversifying and liberalizing a surrogate assessor's conception of relevance can yield substantial improvement in the surrogate and, in some cases, rival the authority. Finally, we present the results of a user study conducted to investigate the effect that three archetypal high-recall retrieval systems have on judging behaviour. Compared to using random and uncertainty sampling, selecting documents for training using relevance sampling significantly decreases the probability that a user will identify that document as relevant. On the other hand, no substantial difference between the test conditions is observed in the time taken to render such assessments.
