Courts are pushing eDiscovery professionals to modernize. Exterro provides a Modern eDiscovery Checklist to meet those expectations!

The article titled (wait for it!) How Courts Are Pushing eDiscovery to Modernize–It’s Like You Need a Checklist!, available here) discusses how technology is evolving at a breakneck pace and the gray areas of eDiscovery are expanding rapidly. If your organization is still relying on a 2018 eDiscovery playbook, you aren’t just behind the curve—you are actively inviting judicial sanctions, waiver of privilege, and severe regulatory penalties.

There are recent case law rulings to address the “BYOD and Ephemeral Messaging Trap”, the “’Modern Attachment’ Mirage” and more. In certain situations, AI-generated prompts, code, and outputs are now fully discoverable. And don’t forget about Rule 502(d) orders – Judge Andrew J. Peck never does!

Exterro has created a Modern eDiscovery Checklist to help you keep up, but there’s more to sound eDiscovery than checking boxes off a list. Understanding the why—and the specific case law driving these changes—is what will actually protect your organization.

So, what specific cases illustrate how courts are pushing eDiscovery professionals to modernize? And how do all the best practices promote cross-functional alignment? Find out here, it’s only one click. Click before a court ruling makes you wish you had! 😉

So, what do you think? Does your eDiscovery checklist address modern data challenges? Please share any comments you might have or if you’d like to know more about a particular topic.
