Description

As we enter the 21st century more and more attorneys are concerned with the discovery, production and admissibility of electronic evidence. The ubiquitous use of computers for creating electronic information has dramatically changed discovery and admission of case evidence. Attorneys are concerned with the impact that electronic information will have on their cases, especially since a significant amount of this information is not reduced to print. Globally,over 97 percent of information is created electronically and it is now estimated that more than 30 percent of corporate communications never appear in print. We are now required to discover not only printed materials, but also electronic information that has not been reduced to hardcopy. This book provides legal and technical analysis on the discovery, production and admission of electronic evidence. The book provides clear explanations of technology and legal concepts, authoritative discussion of court rules to electronic information, case summaries on electronic discovery and evidentiary issues, as well as forms, checklists and practical pointers.
