Relativity Fest, kCura Corp.’s annual user conference, kicked off Oct. 13 with the release of Relativity 9, the latest version of the company’s e-discovery platform. In addition to educational sessions on legal and technical topics, the conference included a panel of federal judges telling the crowd of about 1,000 "What Judges Need from Lawyers, Paralegals, and Technologists."
The panel, held at at Chicago’s Palmer House, featured judicial experts on electronic data discovery law, including U.S. District Court judges Nora Barry Fischer (W.D. Pa.) and Xavier Rodriguez (W.D. Tex.), Magistrate Judge Andrew Peck (S.D.N.Y.) and recalled U.S. Magistrate Judge David Waxse (D. Kans.). I was the moderator of the panel; we covered EDD topics ranging from competence, cooperation, and computer-assisted review. The discussion included spirited—but good natured and often humorous—debates among the judges on the vital EDD issues of the day.
