UK News – Data, Privacy and Digital Investigations and Evidence

November 30, 2008 – 6:13 pm

The Data Protection Act was given a new ‘shine’ in the name of new laws on data sharing. Check out at the Ministry of Justice website Information Commissioner to be given tougher powers’. Besides giving the Information Commissioner tougher powers, organisations will need to improve transparency and accountability when dealing with personal information. From the [...]

Since my conclusion back in December 2007

November 17, 2008 – 2:50 pm

I’ve just re-read the conclusion in my research paper published here. In the litigation arena, I have found that there are many more blogs on various aspects of ediscovery coming from the US and still hardly any blogs from elsewhere. Worldwide searching/linking is still lopsided when it comes to online knowledge and information distribution. Perhaps [...]

My first publication

November 15, 2008 – 12:38 pm

In the past, I’ve written lots of system/software documentation/specification and project plans etc. but today I really feel a different sense of achievement. My article “Electronic Discovery/Disclosure: From Litigation to International Commercial Arbitration” appeared in The International Journal of Arbitration, Mediation and Dispute Management, V 74, N 4, Nov 2008 (The Arbitration Journal by the [...]

internet platforms back in Sept 2007

October 5, 2008 – 12:30 am

For those interested in more than just googling or e-mailing find out what Marc Andreessen wrote about ‘internet platforms’ back in Sept 2007 at his blog. The blog reads like a marketing speech for Marc’s venture into Ning (Ning platform). Still… Ning platform has turned into a ‘rich’ playground for Marc and Co. In my [...]

Production of electronic documents

October 1, 2008 – 6:56 pm

The announcement at the ICC website on ‘Task Force on Production of Electronic Documents in Arbitration’ appears to me to be the start of more Task Forces to come. I do not know why the ICC specifically use the term ‘Production’. Why not just a Task Force for electronic disclosure or electronic documents? I fear [...]

An insight into what could emerge from even a ‘spillover’ event ran loosely based on the Open Space Technology (OST).

September 29, 2008 – 2:52 pm

The ‘spillover’ event is the BCS BarCamp5 Spillover held on Saturday 28th September at the BCS Office in London. I was notified of the BarCamp event just two days before the planned event. Before the actual day, it seems to be a momentous event for the BCS as reported in the BCS blog. Having attended [...]

A Conference for ‘up & coming’ arbitration practitioners – Establishing Your Case in International Arbitration

September 17, 2008 – 9:33 am

No E-Documentation or edisclosure mentioned on this ICC UK / CIArb joint conference. Perhaps the ICC UK and CIArb do not wish to remind those wishing to refresh their knowledge of evidence and legal submissions on the ‘growing issue as a result of the electronic exchanges of documents between parties’. Surely the ‘growing issue…’ as [...]
