About this Book
Electronic Evidence: Law and Practice explores the range of problems encountered with electronic communications from discovery to trial, and offers practical solutions to both existing and potential problems. It examines (1) the new discovery rules and how they relate to past practices, and (2) fundamental evidentiary issues governing the admissibility of electronic evidence. Particular emphasis is given to the unique problems evolving around the way in which parties are asserting the attorney-client privilege and judges are applying it to e-mail communications.
Author Paul Rice offers a unique perspective on the attorney-client privilege issues of electronic evidence. He has 40 years of teaching experience, served as a special master for over 30 years, ruled on hundreds of thousands of privilege claims, and written the leading treatises on the subject of the attorney-client privilege for both state and federal courts.
