The Sedona Conference Working Group 6 Annual Meeting

HaystackID is proud to partner with The Sedona Conference as a Working Group Annual Sponsor for the Virtual Working Group 6 Annual Meeting on February 17-18, 2021, from Noon-4:15 pm EST each day.

The meeting’s focus will be on new outlines and drafts in need of WG6 member review and comment, including the following topics:

• Proportionality in cross-border discovery
• Discovery under 28 U.S.C. § 1782
• International legal holds
• Cross-border privilege issues
• Ephemeral messaging
• International Litigation Principles, Second Edition

The mission of Working Group 6 is to address issues that arise in the context of e-information management and e-disclosure for organizations subject to litigation and regulatory oversight in multiple jurisdictions with potentially conflicting international laws. The group serves as a global forum and think-tank for sharing information, developing best practices, and educating on matters of national and international law and policy regarding the discovery, management, disclosure, and protection of electronically stored information. Working Group 6’s first publication, the Framework for Analysis of Cross-Border Conflicts, was released in 2008 and cited shortly thereafter by the European Commission’s Article 29 Working Party as an important contribution to the emerging international dialogue on disclosure and privacy. Working Group 6 also hosts an online International Overview of Discovery Data Privacy and Disclosure Requirements and has held meetings and educational programs in England, Spain, and Bermuda.

HaystackID welcomes the opportunity to discuss your current challenges, how they impact your organization, and how we may be able to help you solve those challenges. To schedule a virtual meeting, reach out to our data and legal discovery expert, Scott Sterkel today.
