<i><b>BREAKING NEWS:</b></i><br> Sedona Conference Releases 3rd Edition of e-Discovery Principles for Public Comment
Perhaps the most often cited e-discovery document — from the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure amendments to cases from New York to California — is “The Sedona Principles,” a wide-ranging publication from the group of e-discovery experts at The Sedona Conference. The document ranges from entry-level topics (“What is electronic discovery?”) to the specific (reasonable and good faith efforts for the obligation to preserve electronically stored information).
There's just one problem: The last full version of the document, version 2, was released in 2007. But now, following four years of work from The Sedona Conference Working Group 1 (WG1), the organization is releasing version 3 of The Sedona Principles for public comment.
Released under the full title “The Sedona Principles, Third Edition: Best Practices, Recommendations & Principles for Addressing Electronic Document Production,” the 116-page document features 14 different principles, which Sedona says “embody the consensus view of WG1 on a reasonable and balanced approach to the treatment of electronically stored information in the legal process.” These principles range in topic from how electronic information is handled in relation to other information (Principle 1) to the differences between responding and requesting parties (Principles 6 and 7) to sanctions and remediation (Principle 14).
