In February 2015, the Second Edition of the Sedona Canada Principles Addressing Electronic Discovery was released for public comment.

​Please join us on April 21st, 2015 for a webinar with Susan Wortzman and Jim Swanson, two of the five members of the WG7 Steering Committee who led the extensive drafting effort for this comprehensive update to The Sedona Canada Principles. Susan and Jim will be presenting their key updated recommendations, including:

• The application of proportionality to the discovery of Electronically Stored Information (“ESI”)
• A renewed emphasis on the concept of cooperation in developing a joint discovery plan, and a proposed departure from the “meet-and-confer” practice as this term is typically used
• The existing and potential future usage of technological tools to streamline the e-discovery process and obviate many e-discovery disputes
• The application of privacy in various e-discovery contexts, including social media, employer-issued devices, and criminal investigation
• The application of cost-shifting, and sanctions for e-discovery abuses, in today’s Canadian litigation environment

​Susan Wortzman is in Cape Town, South Africa presenting a session called “The Collision of e-Discovery and Information Management”.  The presentation focuses on the similarity of tools being used for both e-discovery and information governance.
