In Facebook, Inc. v. Wint, the District of Columbia Court of Appeals, stating that “[t]he plain text of the SCA (Stored Communications Act) thus appears to foreclose Facebook from complying with Mr. Wint’s subpoenas”, concluded that the appellee “has not established the existence of a serious constitutional doubt that could warrant application of the doctrine of avoidance” reversing the trial court’s order holding Facebook in civil contempt for refusing to comply with subpoenas served by appellee Daron Wint.

Observations about Legaltech 2019 from Attendees, Part Two: eDiscovery Trends 150 150 CloudNine

As I’ve done the past three years, I reached out to several attendees of Legaltech New York (LTNY) 2019 (some of whom I met with during the show) to get their thoughts and impressions of this year’s show. We had so many people respond that I decided to split their feedback into two posts. Yesterday was the first half, here are the remaining observations.

I always try to find an easy topic to talk about on the Friday after Legaltech ends because I’m usually exhausted after running around all week (this week even more so, though the results were worth it as CloudNine had a fantastic Legaltech this year!), even with the near record cold that hit New York on the last day. So, when the topic falls in your lap because of something you did a few days earlier, it’s like receiving a gift and that’s how I feel about finding out that my podcast with Digital Detectives is up and available!
