  • Buckles LegalTech Micro Briefs – It’s a Wrap

    Wrapping up my quick takeaways, I want to say that I really enjoyed the upbeat attitude at LTNY 2012. It was a great show for us and the follow up demos, proposals and new development work has kept us hopping. So here are the last of my briefs, with apologies to all of the providers who did not manage to get time with us or who could not deliver a memorable message to pass on.
    kCura – The latest release (version 7.3) may feel a bit retro to any of us who remember having to install 20+ applications to every Discovery Cracker workstation in order to TIFF collections. As it was explained to eDJ, the new Relativity Native Imaging feature is optional, only requires 16 applications for full support and is intended to improve the quality and performance of productions. My own take away is that this is the foundation for processing native collections, which is the next logical step in growing Relativity from a review point solution to a broader eDiscovery platform. We followed up with several major Relativity service partners who confirmed our theory. So the real question is whether this will blunt the meteoric rise of kCura’s channel or simply launch them into broader corporate sales. We have seen other market leaders stumble and lose momentum when making this transition, so kCura should be watched closely over the next year.



  • Summary of the DOJ Recommendations and Strategies for ESI Discovery

    Are you facing a federal subpoena?  The Joint Electronic Technology Working Group (JETWG) recently published a framework for handling eDiscovery in federal criminal cases “where the volume and/or nature of the ESI produced as discovery significantly increases the complexity of the case.”  The framework is broken across three parts: recommendations, strategies and a checklist.  The recommendations section gives an overview of the framework, and the strategies document provides a more detailed narrative.  The checklist is simply a one page document that guides the user through the framework to ensure all the items have been addressed. The JEWTG based the recommendations and strategies on 10 principles.  The first two principles relate to the competence of the people working on the case.  Specifically, attorneys “have a responsibility to have an adequate understanding of” ediscovery, and both “parties should include individuals with sufficient [...]
