Defining Documents - Bye Bye Bates
One of the most challenging problems facing litigators is how to work with the massive volume of digital documents produced during discovery. In the past, each piece of paper was stamped with a "Bates" number to help trial teams manage exhibits. But with digital files, there are no "pages" and it becomes increasingly difficult to control the process.
Tom O'Connor, director of the Legal Electronic Document Institute (and a member of Law Technology News' editorial advisory board) says it's time to rethink how we process e-files. Files should be processed as documents, not pages, he argues, saying this simple step will dramatically change e-discovery, lowering costs and increasing accuracy.
O'Connor also discusses the Louisiana Bar Solo and Small Firm Technology conference in New Orleans -- to help practitioners affected by Hurricane Katrina. Both O'Connor and Monica Bay will be speaking at the May event.
