e-Discovery Case Law Update – Summer 2010
Date: July 13, 2010
Duration: 60 minutes
This quarterly case law update from Fios explores recent court decisions related to e-discovery, the impact these cases may have and are already having, and tactics and strategies organizations should consider to help control their e-discovery costs and risks. Mary Mack moderates a session with Ralph Losey and Brett Anders, both partners at Jackson Lewis, who discuss highlights of issues and cases, including, but not limited to:
- Do employees have a reasonable expectation of privacy for the text messages they send on devices owned by their employers? In June, the US Supreme Court handed down a long awaited decision in the case of City of Ontario, Calif. v. Quon. Join the webcast to hear how it might impact you and your clients.
- Important clarification. Judge Scheindlin amends opinion in Pension Committee – clarification regarding the scope of a party's obligation to collect records from its employees.
- To look or not to look at an employee's computer? The predicament many employers now face due to the March ruling in Stengart v. Loving Care Agency, Inc., where an employee sent a personal email through her employer-issued company computer.
