Introduction

          Jason M. Shinn
          Since 2001, Mr. Shinn has focused his legal practice on
          employment law and counseling, primarily on the management-side.
          He has also litigated employment related claims in state and federal
          courts.
          Based on this experience, Mr. Shinn publishes an employment law
          blog, www.MichiganEmploymentLawAdvisor.com, that addresses
          employment related matters relevant to HR professionals and their
          companies.

          improved investigative processes that leverage best practices and

E-Discovery & Employment Litigation: The
Problem of Treasure Troves & Karma
“The reality of electronic discovery is it starts off as the
responsibility of those who don’t understand the technology
and ends up as the responsibility of those who don’t
understand the law.”
                                  Craig Ball, E-discovery attorney

Planning & Strategy
Managing E-Discovery Risks

•Preventable Risks
•Strategic Risks
•External Risks
Risks Unique to
          Employment Litigation
• Statutory Preservation of employment
  related records
• Time
  – Internal Investigations
  – Agency Investigations
  – Litigation
• Information Asymmetry
• Recycling/Reimplementation of Evidence
Limiting Red Ink for e-discovery preservation

 • Clean house before litigation is filed

 • Look for someone else to pay for it

 • Explore technology options to reduce costs

 • Ask your lawyer for recommendations and
   explore their experience reducing electronic
   discovery costs
Employment Practice Liability Insurance
& E-Discovery

• Review Policy.
• Is Endorsement /
  Additional Coverage
  Required?
• Insist to be copied and
  included on all
  communications between
  counsel and carrier.
• Be cautious of efforts to
  push preservation efforts
  to your company.
E-discovery and Employment Litigation - Webinar
Preservation Issues in a Cloudy World:
    Cloud Computing and E-Discovery
• Control

• Contract and service level commitments

• Location

• Responsibility

• Timing
E-Discovery Questions to Ask Cloud
                  Vendors
•   How would information be placed on legal hold?
•   How can the information be accessed by various parties?
•   How would the e-discovery functions of review and analysis be executed?
•   Can data be reviewed without downloading it?
•   What are the vendor's systems, data and backup procedures?
•   Does the vendor ensure that information is protected and redundant?
•   Is information stored on a shared basis or is there dedicated storage?
•   Where is the physical location of the stored data?
•   Who bears the responsibility and cost of information collection and preservation?
•   Who would be held liable for a failure to collect and preserve the information?
•   Does the vendor provide agent/employee to testify regarding preservation and collection
    to further chain of custody and collection issues.
•   How can the data be searched and collected or locked down?
•   How long would collection efforts take?
•   What format would vendor deliver the data?
•   Continuity of business plans, i.e., what happens if vendor goes out of business?
•   Retention periods?
Best Practices for Companies and HR
  Preparing Litigation Response Plan
• Information Technology & Infrastructure Decision-making
  – Include e-discovery assessment
• Create “Litigation Response Team”
   –   HR
   –   Management
   –   IT professionals
   –   Legal
• Training – managers, IT, HR
• Identify earliest possible trigger date for preservation.
• Document what steps taken and why. This documentation
  should be viewed as both a risk management exercise on
  the organization’s part and also an attempt to genuinely
  meet the company’s litigation obligations.
Best Practices for Companies and HR
 Preparing Litigation Response Plan

• Make sure lawyers are resource. If
  not, question their value
   – Lawyer jargon "relevance“
   – Lack of solutions/recommendations for
     preservation
   – Technical Understanding

Editor's Notes

  1. The cloud has dramatically expanded the number of places where electronically stored information (ESI) can live. Under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (pdf), a party to litigation is expected to preserve and be able to produce ESI that is in its "possession, custody or control.“With cloud, those duties are split -- the ESI may not technically be in your possession anymore, and yet it's presumably under your controlPotential e-discovery problems vary depending on the type of cloud provider and the contract, observers say. Because email has been subject to e-discovery for a while, many email hosting providers have this covered in their contracts. And large cloud vendors that typically serve Fortune 500 companies are likely to pay more attention to the discoverability of data.
