In this episode, we will continue our theme of e-discovery for FDCPA litigation.  If you are in the federal courts, you will need to abide by Rule 26(f) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.  This rule requires the parties in litigation to "...confer as soon as practicable...[and to] state the parties' views and proposals on...any issues about disclosure or discovery of electronically stored information..." Proper handling of this "meet and confer" session about ESI and e-discovey in general is crucial to any winning strategy.  Today's webinar will illuminate the "Seven Deadly Sins of the Rule 26(f) Meet and Confer Conference" as punctuated in an article by my mentor and Dean of Bryan University's E-Discovery Project Management Program, William H. Hamilton, a partner at Quarles & Brady and Chairman of the Association of Certified E-Discovery Specialists (ACEDS). For more information on how to conduct yourselves at the "Meet and Confer" conference, visit A. Johnson & Associates, LLC at 888-502-0586 or www.ediscoverynow.net.

We will discuss litigation hold strategy and procedure as illuminated in Arkfeld's Best Practices Guide for Legal Hold, 2011-2012 Edition. For more information on the execution of a Litigation Hold for your FDCPA litigation, contact A. Johnson & Associates, LLC at 888-502-0586 or www.ediscoverynow.net.

We will also discuss how to incorporate the First Request for Admissions, Notice of Service of First Set of Interrogatories to Plaintiff, Defendant's Expert Witness Interrogatories to Plaintiff and the Litigation Hold Notice.

In this episode, we will talk about how to target your request for electronically stored information from a debt collector, original creditor, or credit bureau.  When requesting ESI in discovery, your first step is to determine the specific, relevant case information you want from the responding side.  Always remember that electronic information is not just text or data, but also includes audio, video, and graphics.  Therefore, if the credit status is at issue, then, the database credit information from credit reporting agencies, third party collectors, or original creditors will be relevant.  Keep in mind that when requesting discovery, it is important to target ESI responsive to your claims.  This may include e-mail, voice mail, audio, video, word processing files, databases, Internet history files, virtually any ESI.  In addition, you may also need to focus on  ESI storage devices such as computers, PDA's, cellular phones; storage media such as hard drives, backup tapes, pen drives, as well as storage locations, i.e., home offices, central servers, etc. For more information on how to identify targeted ESI, please contact A. Johnson & Associates, LLC at 888-502-0586 or www.ediscoverynow.net.

In this episode we will discuss databases and database information as it relates to computer basics and the electronic discovery process.  Enterprises increasingly rely on databases to manage business processes.  If the credit status on your credit bureau report is at issue, then the database credit information from credit reporting agencies will be relevant.  Absent a specific showing of need or relevance, a requesting party is entitled only to database fields that contain relevant information, not the entire database in which the information resides or the underlying database application or database engine.  The producing party, i.e. credit bureaus, original creditor, or third party debt collector, may refuse to furnish copies of database applications arguing that doing so violates user licenses.  Therefore, it is imperative that you are specific when asking for database information.  For further illumination on this topic, please contact A.

In this episode, we will talk about the EDRM, the Electronic Discovery Reference Model.  The EDRM is the industry standard for the production and processing of electronic data for discovery.  It was initially conceived by George Socha, Jr., founder of Socha Consulting, LLC in St. Paul, MN, and Tom Gelbmann, managing director of Gelbmann & Associates in Roseville, MN.  The EDRM divides the the e-discovery process into six areas: Information Management Identification Preservation/Collection Processing/Review/Analysis Production Preservation The EDRM also identifies the functions associated with each area, our topic of discussion today.  Obviously, we cannot cover every nook and cranny of the functions of the EDRM, so our goal is to give you the "nuts and bolts" so that you can connect the dots and understand why e-discovery is an important part of FDCPA litigation.  This Webinar is intended for those litigants who do not have any experience in e-discovery.

Hello folks and thank you for tuning in to another episode of the E-Discovery for FDCPA Pro Se Litigants Webinar.  I am your host, Anthony Johnson. In this E-Discovery Webinar, we will talk about whether ESI or "electronically stored information" can be deleted by a debt collector or original creditor.  It is a myth that deleting a computer file, such as a word processing document, will cause it to be destroyed.  When a computer user pushes the delete key to erase a document, one is not destroying the document data, but instead merely removing the pointer or computer address of the document.  Thus, it is not destroyed and can be retrieved.  So, if you have had a heated conversation with a debt collector, and the debt collector had said some things that were in violation of the FDCPA, he/she may want to delete that conversation.  That conversation may be found even though other parts of it may have been overwitten.  For more information about deletion of ESI by a debt collector, contact A. Johnson & Associates, LLC at 888-502-0586 or www.ediscoverynow.net.

In this episode we will discuss how electronic evidence differs from paper evidence.  Because of its informal nature, electronic mail has encouraged senders to write unguarded, unwise and sometime inappropriate comments.  Digital evidence takes on a very different and distinct characteristic than paper evidence and is not just text or data, but also includes audio, video, and graphics.  Electronic data contains something that is called "metadata" or data about data.  This data is valuable information about the electronic data and is hidden from the printed copy of the electronic file.  Metadata will tell: the means of creation of the data purpose of the data time and date of creation creation or author of the data location on a computer network where the data was created standards used to create the data The metadata can be viewed for unguarded comments by the authors of the documents.

(Electronic Discovery or ESI) Hello folks and thank you once again for joining here at the E-Discovery for FDCPA Pro Se Litigants Webinar.  I am your host, Anthony Johnson.  Before we can truly get into how to request electronically stored information (ESI) from a debt collector or original creditor, we must first understand what is ESI.  We must also understand the EDRM Lifecycle, the industry standard.  More on that later in the coming Webinars.  For now, please know that electronic discovery has been described as the disclosure of electronically stored information including the form or forms in which it should be produced.  This includes, but not limited to, email, spreadsheets, word proessing documents, audio, video, or any content in a digital format.  So, when your debt collector or original creditor would intimate that they do not have the original contract or application that was signed when the presumptive debt in question metastasized because it was procured via telephone or Internet, you can respond that under the federal and state rules relating to electronically stored information, you have a duty to request and they to disclose responsive electronic evidence.

In this debut episode, we will talk about the basics of e-discovery as it relates to FDCPA litigation.  Today, all litigants, whether you are a pro se, represented by a solo practitioner, or a large law firm, have a duty to request and disclose responsive electronic evidence in their cases. Electronic discovery has been described as the "disclosure or discovery of electronicaly stored information (ESI), including the form or forms in which it should be produced..."  See, Junk v. Aon Corp., No. 07-4640, 2007 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 89741, at *2 n.2 (D.N.Y. Nov. 30, 2007).  ESI includes e-mail, spreadsheets, word processing documents, audio, video, or any content in a digital format.  We will talk about what it means to request ESI in an initial ESI Debt Validation Letter to your debt collector or original creditor.  For more information on how you may employ ESI in your FDCPA case, contact A.
