Da Silva Moore v. Publicis Groupe
United States District Court for the Southern District of New York
287 F.R.D. 182 (2012)
Facts
Monique Da Silva Moore and others (employees) (plaintiffs) brought a federal workplace-discrimination action against Publicis Groupe and MSL Group (MSL) (defendants). MSL possessed over three million pieces of potentially relevant electronically stored information (ESI). MSL’s lawyers and technical experts willingly disclosed information about the technology-assisted-review (TAR) tools they intended to use in electronic discovery (e-discovery). MSL’s transparency went far in helping the parties meet their goal of developing a search protocol in which they could have 95 percent confidence. Nevertheless, the lawyers needed several court-mediated conferences to finalize the details of that search protocol. MSL’s TAR experts accompanied MSL’s lawyers to those conferences.
