This Sidley Update addresses the following recent developments and court decisions involving e-discovery issues:

  1. a U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Florida opinion concluding that individual and corporate communications were governed by the same privilege standards and ruling that the work-product protection applied to documents created because of the prospect of litigation, not merely the smaller group of documents whose primary motivating purpose was the anticipation of litigation
  2. a U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey ruling that a special master did not abuse his discretion in conducting an international comity analysis and concluding that defendant was required to comply with U.S. discovery in connection with a production involving documents subject to the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
  3. a U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida order granting plaintiff’s motion for reconsideration and ordering defendant to pay reasonable attorneys’ fees to the plaintiff after failing to produce information responsive to discovery requests, even though the information was available to defendant
  4. a U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas order overruling defendant’s objections to plaintiffs’ expert reports premised on purported violations of state statutory requirements because the relevant expert disclosure requirements were procedural and, therefore, governed by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and not Texas state law
