Linked files, while integral to modern collaboration, present unique challenges in eDiscovery. Panelists discussed challenges and strategies for dealing with these files in legal processes during this panel sponsored by Alvarez & Marsal. Here’s what they had to say: Understanding Linked Files ▫️ Definition and Impact: Linked files are URLs or paths embedded in communications or documents that link to cloud document repositories like Microsoft OneDrive or Google Drive. Legal and Procedural Challenges ▫️ Case Law Developments: Recent cases highlight the courts' cautious approach towards treating hyperlinked documents as attachments. Decisions emphasize the need for clarity in ESI protocols about how linked files should be handled. Technical and Strategic Approaches ▫️ Collection and Preservation: Identifying and preserving linked files requires understanding the client’s technology and potential limitations. Technologies are continually evolving, such as Microsoft’s “version as shared” feature, complicating standard eDiscovery practices. ▫️ Review and Production Strategies: Effective handling of linked files includes challenges in processing and deduplication, particularly when ensuring metadata accuracy and dealing with version control. Tools and technologies must adapt to manage these efficiently. Best Practices for Handling Linked Files ▫️ Proportionality and Practicality: It's crucial to negotiate ESI protocols that consider the proportionality and relevance of linked files. Understanding both the technical capabilities and the legal ramifications will guide better decision-making. As we navigate the expanding data landscape in legal environments, linked files continue to test the boundaries of traditional eDiscovery practices. Legal professionals must stay informed and agile, adapting strategies that respect both technological capabilities and legal requirements. How is your organization navigating these challenges? What best practices would you recommend? Speakers: Ray Payne Lionel Joiner Nirav Shah Brad Koehler #eDiscovery #LegalTech #LinkedFiles #AtlantaGA

Husch Blackwell's Shelby Dolen, CIPP/US, sheds light on the growing complexity of U.S. state privacy laws and their impact on businesses. As Colorado's Privacy Act kicks into full gear with universal opt-out mechanisms (UOOMs) in effect, companies are grappling with adapting to varying state and international privacy laws. Shelby said while the UOOMs may benefit consumers with reduced targeted advertising and website tracking, businesses could struggle to adapt to a variety of U.S. state and international privacy laws. She noted some companies are relying on cookie management providers and vendors to recognize the GPC signal. "Although clients are using these cookie management tools, it kind of comes with not only needing to recognize the signal … but also staying up to date with all the other issues going on within the space," Shelby said.
