Documents Potentially Subject to Preservation Obligations
Monday, November 26th, 2007Anything and everything.
It is the recommendation of this body, (see link below), that while a “laundry list” of types of documents (e-mail, word processing documents, etc.) could be helpful in determining what types of documents must be preserved, it could also be dangerous. Because technology changes so quickly, it is entirely possible that any list that is meant to be exhaustive could easily become outdated in a matter of weeks. Rather, it might be best to focus on the content of the electronically stored information instead. For a list of the “usual suspects” or typical types of electronic documents that must be preserved, see ABA Civil Discovery Standard 29 at LINK FOR DOCUMENT HERE:
