The Gibbons 14th Annual E-Discovery Conference is a three-part webinar series organized by Gibbons P.C., a prominent law firm with a dedicated E-Discovery Task Force. This annual event focuses on the latest developments and challenges in electronic discovery and information management, providing valuable insights for legal professionals.
The 2021 conference, titled "The More Things Change, the More They Stay the Same – Avoiding the Recent Uptick in Rule 37(e) Sanctions," addressed the resurgence of sanctions motions and awards related to the spoliation of electronically stored information (ESI). The panel discussed recent decisions involving Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 37(e) sanctions, including the seminal decision in DR Distribs., LLC v. 21 Century Smoking, Inc., and offered practical advice on "discovery on discovery" as it relates to proving or defending against claims of ESI spoliation.
The conference featured esteemed speakers such as Susan L. Nardone, Honorable Patrick J. Walsh (Ret.), and Scott J. Etish, who provided their expertise on navigating the complexities of e-discovery and mitigating risks associated with ESI spoliation. Attendees had the opportunity to engage with these experts and gain practical strategies for managing e-discovery challenges.
This event is particularly beneficial for legal professionals, including attorneys, paralegals, and litigation support specialists, who are involved in the discovery process. Participants can expect to enhance their understanding of current e-discovery issues, learn best practices for avoiding sanctions, and stay informed about recent legal developments in this rapidly evolving field.
