Notable Quotes 3
We're required to have the files in a format that we can produce them to defense counsel.
Relativity is NOT a forensic tool. It is incapable of dealing with many things that are found forensically on a computer like free space, slack space, and system files to name a few.
Ultimately what we really need is a spreadsheet of every device, whether it's been dumped (or partially dumped), and then identifying that same info — which device, and what materials from it — are being given to us with each data transfer. Otherwise I think organizationally and for review purposes it will be a total disaster for us.
