Domino administrators in IT departments have become key players in corporate litigation due to the development of electronic discovery (e-discovery) procedures over the last several years. IT administrators must become knowledgeable about e-discovery, so they can provide required information as quickly, efficiently, and cost-effectively as possible. In order to better understand e-discovery, it is essential to understand the process of litigation in the United States and how U.S. rules have changed to account for electronic discovery. It is also imperative for IT departments in larger organizations-and some smaller ones as well-to prepare systems and policies in advance to meet potential demands in the new electronic litigation environment.
