Book Announcement: eDiscovery and Digital Evidence By Jay Grenig and William Glesisner III

In their cutting-edge new text, eDiscovery and Digital Evidence, co-authors Jay Grenig and William Gleisner III have compiled an authoritative reference on navigating the changing world of trial procedure through the murky waters of the digital age. "This book focuses on how lawyers and judges can handle digital information, including preservation and retention policies, discovery, disclosure, cost sharing, spoliation, and business records and computer-generated evidence."

Not only does the text guide courts and attorneys on how to treat electronic documents in the courtroom, it also incorporates the relevant rules of civil procedure and evidence, making the transition from traditional courtroom standards to hi-tech virtually seamless. Topics covered include practicing in a digital world, discovery and disclosure of digital information, and digital evidence. These are examined not only from the attorneys' perspectives, but also from those of judges at the state and federal levels.

Beyond court room procedure, eDiscovery and Digital Evidence details the features and technical use of software, how to effectively combat opposing counsel's use of e-discovery, and the impact that use of electronic resources has upon privacy standards. While not exhaustive, Grenig and Gleisner's text serves as an indispensable aid through the turning tides of court room procedure from traditional to contemporary methods.
