E-discovery ruling in KPMG case: Brace for 'profound' impact? Cott ruled that KPMG has to preserve the hard drive of every potential class member. "Prudence favors retaining all relevant materials," Cott wrote, pointing to the seminal e-discovery ruling, *Zubulake v. UBS Warburg*<http://www.ediscoverylaw.com/2004/12/articles/case-summaries/zubulake-iv-court-denies-motion-for-adverse-inference-instruction-but-defendant-to-pay-for-redeposing-witnesses/>. The magistrate judge reasoned that because McMahon, the district judge, hasn't yet ruled on class certification in the KPMG audit associate case, every entry-level auditor in the opt-in action is a potential "key player" under *Zubulake*, whether in the Manhattan class action or in another case that could be filed depending on how McMahon ultimately defines the class. http://bit.ly/tolCXB Source: http://newsandinsight.thomsonreuters.com/Legal/News/ViewNews.aspx?id=32012&terms=@ReutersTopicCodes+CONTAINS+'ANV See if people are clicking on this link: http://bit.ly/tolCXB+ Try the bitly.com sidebar to see who is talking about a page on the web: http://bitly.com/pages/sidebar List archives at http://lists.ufl.edu/archives/recmgmt-l.html Contact [log in to unmask] for assistance To unsubscribe from this list, click the below link.
