Who Should Pay For Electronic Discovery?

Electronic discovery has become a common issue for most litigation matters. If it is not handled with caution or restraint, it can be financially prohibitive or crippling. This paper aims to answer the question of who should bear the costs of retrieving and reviewing electronic documents, if an expansive discovery is insisted by the opposing parties.

See my article, "E-Discovery: Should the Discovery Costs Be Shifted to the Requesting Party?", published at The Advocates' Quarterly, Vol. 33, No. 4, pp. 419-436.
