Josh Lanning (Moore & Van Allen; Charlotte, NC) presents at "In-House Counsel Facing the Music" CLE program in Half Moon Bay, CA.
People used to communicate by letter. Discovery was difficult then (we hear). Then people communicated by e-mail and discovery became vastly more complex. But just when the legal world began to wrap its head around how to dig for smoking guns within a few gigabytes of data sent through Microsoft Exchange, the iPhone came along and changed the playing field. Now, new modes of communication literally pop up every day and traditional discovery mechanisms have been slow to catch up. Trial attorney Josh Lanning will discuss trials and tribulations of trying to get the “good stuff” - and trying to protect it - in world where new communications applications appear almost every day.
