eDiscovery – Division of labor (review/export) within a case

 

Use Case:

An organization wants to divide labor within an eDiscovery case specifically review and export of data.

 

Here is an example:

There are two groups (Group A and Group B) of users that will be part of the same Legal (or HR) case.

  • Group A consists of C-Level employees
  • Group B consists of the executive assistants for Group A.


Legal has 2 investigators (User 1 and User 2) that will be searching the data, but each user can only review/export the data for each group their corresponding group.  Here is how that would be mapped out.

  • User 1 (Sally) –> Group A (C-Level employees)
    • Group A will be limited to keywords and any items with attachments over the specified date range
  • User 2 (John) –> Group B (executive assistants)
    • Group B will include all items over a specific date range.

 

 

Organizational Concerns:

User 1 (Sally) should only be able review/export data for Group A, and User 2 (John) should only be able review/export data for Group B.

 

 

Question:

How do you divide the labor within an eDiscovery case?

 

 

Response:

Here are the eDiscovery permissions/roles that can be farmed out within an eDiscovery case.

  • Communication
  • Compliance Search
  • Custodian
  • Export
  • Hold
  • Preview
  • Review (review set)
  • RMS Decrypt

What does this mean?  Within case, you can let one user create the case, another perform searches, a third review the data, a fourth export the data, etc.

 

Returning to the use case, you cannot create 2 separate Review Sets and then have the legal officers search the corresponding review sets.

Your option, as of today, is to create 2 different cases, one for each investigator and each use case.

  • Case A ---> User 1 (Sally) --–> Group A (C-Level employees)
    • Group A will be limited to keywords and any items with attachments over the specified date range
    • User 1 (Sally) who runs the search, hold, adds data to the Review Set, performs the review and exports

 

  • Case B ---> User 2 (John)-- –> Group B (executive assistants)
    • Group B will include all items over a specific date range.
    • User 2 (John) who runs the search, hold, adds data to the Review Set, performs the review and exports

 

Note – you could also layer on a 3rd legal officer and let them do all the search for one or both of the groups.  Here’s how that would look.

  • Case A ---> User 3 (Gary) ---> User 1 (Sally) –> Group A (C-Level employees)
    • Group A will be limited to keywords and any items with attachments over the specified date range
    • User 3 (Gary) who runs the search, hold, and adds data to the Review Set
    • User 1 (Sally) who performs the review and exports

 

  • Case B ---> User 3 (Gary) ---> User 2 (John) --–> Group B (executive assistants)
    • Group B will include all items over a specific date range.
    • User 3 (Gary) who runs the search, hold, and adds data to the Review Set
    • User 2 (John) who performs the review and exports
