What Obligations Do Non-Parties Have to Preserve Documents?
The CEO of Company X sits down for a morning cup of coffee, reads her online
newspaper, and finds that a former business partner is a party to a major
lawsuit. Even worse, the subject matter of the lawsuit may well involve the
former partner's relationship with Company X, raising a real possibility
that its documents and electronic data may be of interest.

In such a situation, what, if any, is the obligation of Company X to
preserve documents and electronic data? Must Company X undertake the
potentially expensive and burdensome task of immediately suspending its
normal document retention policies, like parties to a lawsuit, thereby
ensuring any and all potentially relevant evidence is preserved?
