		<description><![CDATA[At the start of what would have been a normal day at work, I learned that I received an invitation to attend an eDiscovery related breakfast that was set to start in 30 minutes.  Luckily it was located a block away from my office, at the historic City Club in San Francisco (which features an original Diego Rivera mural in it…as I digress).  Not knowing what to expect, I was pleasantly surprised, no, completely flabbergasted that this event was taking place and I had never heard of it, or the Cowen Group prior to my arrival.  I quickly learned that the Cowen Group is a highly regarded staffing, recruiting, and management consulting firm geared specifically towards eDiscovery/litigation technology professionals.  The Cowen Group is sponsoring Leadership Breakfasts in cities across the country such as Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York.  Obviously, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Whether it is self-imposed or the industry standard to attend certain “trade show” style conferences, the Carmel Valley eDiscovery Retreat (“CVeDR”), truly was a “retreat” from the norm.  Despite the obvious, which was enjoying the beautiful setting of Monterey while hovering over the ocean, the conference attracted many “heavy hitters” in the industry such as Craig Ball, Chris Dale from the UK, and Judge Peck.  Moreover, several CEOs of many of the vendors that typically sponsor such conferences traveled from around the country to see what the show was all about.  Since I returned, literally dozens of eDiscovery professionals have asked me, “Kevin, how was it?”  Thus, I decided to answer that question by compiling a list of some of the distinct ways that the CVeDR differed from other conferences that I have attended: 1.)    Participants Actually Attended the Sessions – [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[By: Kevin L. Nichols Earlier this year, I wrote an article on the Executive Counsel Institute in San Francisco and mentioned some key takeaways, including best practices and vendors that excelled in various phases of the EDRM. Surprisingly, I was contacted by one of the vendors referenced in the predictive coding section of the piece and was educated about its business model and counseled about its distinctions from its other predictive coding competitors. Logically, his arguments were compelling, however, I felt that I needed to spend a little more time researching this topic and share the results of this effort with the eDiscovery community. Thus, here is a capsulated philosophical glimpse of the technology assisted review landscape and how different technological approaches effect its purpose of producing responsive evidence during litigation that will most likely lead to a triable issues [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently, a CFO from Francesca&#8217;s Holdings Corp, a Houston based company, was fired for wrongfully disclosing sensitive non-public information via social media.  In general, it is difficult and nearly impossible to prohibit employees to have LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter accounts for personal use, let alone monitor them effectively.  However, this incident involved an executive/board member of a publicly traded company, which raises further concerns about who and what employees may “share” with the public via Social Media.  Companies, their in-house counsel, and their outside counsel need to develop complex strategies to minimize the exposure and liability that may exist due to their own negligence of protecting private sensitive information. This can be an enormous undertaking that could involve hiring more staff, acquiring expensive technology, and more bureaucracy with accounting and monitoring.  Nevertheless, here are some tips of how a company [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#160; The Masters Series completed its latest installment last week in San Francisco.  Its purpose is to shorten the divide between the recent technological advances in eDiscovery, data protection, records management, and other relevant areas.  Although various topics involved eDiscovery, such as procurement, predictive coding, IP litigation, and data privacy, this article focuses on the knowledge shared in the realm of social media (“SM”). The most astonishing SM revelation  was the vast digital footprint left behind by our mobile devices and what can happen to this data during acquisitions of the companies tracking this information.  Neal Lawson of iDiscovery Solutions, Inc. opened up the presentation with this hypothetical scenario: Neal&#8217;s wife wanted him to use a Whole Foods&#8216; Groupon to purchase some groceries, He then checked traffic and parking conditions using a mobile app on his mobile device, He checked-in [...]]]></description>
