It's not just a US problem. Every organization, big or small, has
records in one electronic format or another - be it e-mail, in databases
or in some software format (Word, Excel, pdf etc). If you have any
electronic records, then you could face an e-discovery. This session
will dig into the: 
* 
legal drivers behind e-discovery 
* 
breadth a discovery search might encompass, even with a small
organization 
* 
ever increasing role e-documents play in that discovery process, even in
Canada 
* 
importance of clear communication with IT and RIMS departments 
* 
crucial need to work together with all affected departments (IT, RIMS
etc.) to ensure the capture of all relevant e-records 
* 
Sedona Canada Principles, a pioneering effort to state fundamental
concepts for e-discovery applicable to a wide range of cases in any
jurisdiction 
* 
pending production of protocols, template and precedents to complement
and implement the Sedona Canada Principles 

Hear from Colin Feasby, a lawyer, about what legal processes drive an
e-discovery; speak with Claire Pater, a paralegal turned IT/litigation
support professional, who works closely with the legal profession on
e-production and e-discovery issues; and mine the knowledge of Martin
Felsky, a Sedona Canada Principles participant.
