February 7, 2011 Opinion or Order Filing 41 OPINION AND ORDER: Once again, this Court is required to rule on an e-discovery issue that could have been avoided had the parties had the good sense to "meet and confer," "cooperate" and generally make every effort to "commu nicate" as to the form in which ESI would be produced. The quoted words are found in opinion after opinion and yet lawyers fail to take the necessary steps to fulfill their obligations to each other and to the court. While certainly not rising to the level of a breach of an ethical obligation, such conduct certainly shows that all lawyers even highly respected private lawyers, Government lawyers, and professors of law need to make greater efforts to comply with the expectations that court s now demand of counsel with respect to expensive and time-consuming document production. Lawyers are all too ready to point the finger at the courts and the Rules for increasing the expense of litigation, but that expense could be greatly diminished if lawyers met their own obligations to ensure that document production is handled as expeditiously and inexpensively as possible. This can only be achieved through cooperation and communication. (Signed by Judge Shira A. Scheindlin on 2/7/2011) (lnl) (Additional attachment(s) added on 2/7/2011: # 1 Exhibit A) (lnl).
February 3, 2011 Opinion or Order Filing 39 OPINION AND ORDER Once again, this Court is required to rule on an e-discovery issue that could have been avoided had the parties had the good sense to "meet and confer," "cooperate" and generally make every effort to "communicate" as to the form in which ESI would be produced, and as further set forth in this document, see document.
