Three eDiscovery Takeaways from Google Antitrust Litigation: eDiscovery Best Practices

In his latest post, Jim Gill of Hanzo discusses three eDiscovery takeaways from the recent ruling in the Google antitrust litigation!

In the blog post titled (wait for it!) Three eDiscovery Takeaways from Google Antitrust Litigation (available here), Jim cites the In re Google Play Store Antitrust Litigation case ruling from March that I covered here. He even cites my coverage (thanks, Jim!), as follows:

“The MDL action involves multiple antitrust cases challenging Google’s Play Store practices as anti-competitive. Even before the MDL was instituted, the Court directed the parties to coordinate discovery with an eye toward containing costs and burdens. However, In April 2021, plaintiffs asked Google about a curious lack of Chat messages in its document productions. In October 2021, Google said that Google Chats are typically deleted after 24 hours and that Google had not suspended this auto-deletion even after this litigation began. Google chose instead to let employees make their own personal choices about preserving chats.”
