United States District Court Judge Shira Scheindlin has done it again. Scheindlin, who sits in the Southern District of New York, issued another landmark e-discovery decision on Friday, July 13, addressing the adequacy of self-collection by government entities in the context of the Freedom of Information Act. It is her fifth decision in the case, Nat’l Day Laborer Org. Network v. U.S. Immigration & Customs Enforcement Agency, 2012 U.S. Dist. Lexis 97863 (SDNY, July 13, 2012) (with one opinion withdrawn).
Although this latest opinion is limited to analysis of the reasonability of search efforts by federal government agencies in a FOIA search (where the government has a high burden of proof), we can expect to see this case frequently cited in the broader context of electronic data discovery.
