Are you aware how the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure might affect your organization? According to a recent survey of corporate attorneys by Pike and Fischer, only 7 per cent of respondents feel that their companies are ready to meet the E-Discovery requirements of the recently updated Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (FRCP). Given that ESG Research estimates that 91 per cent of organizations with a workforce over 20,000 employees have been through an electronic discovery event in the past twelve months, this statistic is truly astounding. The pitfalls involved with E-Discovery represent one of the greatest risks that organizations face in litigation today.This "ITG Pocket Guide" describes the FRCP and the recent changes made to it, explores the implications of these changes for the enterprise (with a focus on IT), and lays out a framework for identifying, assessing and then addressing the risks associated with the facilitation of E-Discovery requests under the new rules. This book covers: What are the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure? Amendments to the FRCP Explained; Organizational Impacts of the Amendments to the FRCP; Consequences of Not Addressing the E-Discovery Challenge; Identifying and Assessing E-Discovery Risks; Addressing E-Discovery Related Risks; Technological Impacts; and Outsourcing [ Source: Brian Babineau, "Leveraging IT and Electronic Discovery Technology to Meet the Expected Challenges Posed by Recent Changes to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure", Index Engines, Inc, October 2006.] |
