The Georgetown Advanced eDiscovery Institute is an annual conference organized by Georgetown Law's Office of Executive and Continuing Legal Education. The 2022 edition, held on November 17-18, 2022, at the Renaissance Washington, DC Downtown Hotel, focused on advanced topics in electronic discovery (eDiscovery), data privacy, and cybersecurity.
The event featured a comprehensive program with sessions such as "Proportionality Under Rule 26 Revisited by Its Architects," where Judges David G. Campbell and Paul Grimm discussed the 2015 amendments on proportionality. Other notable sessions included "Case Law Update: Practical Takeaways from Recent eDiscovery Decisions," "Identifying and Challenging Fabricated Evidence," and "The Great Resignation’s Implications on the Preservation, Collection, and Control of Employee Data." A highlight was the panel on "Discovery of Data in China for US Litigation and Government Investigations," addressing challenges in obtaining data from China.
Attendees had opportunities to network with peers and engage with sponsors showcasing the latest eDiscovery services and products. The conference also offered Continuing Legal Education (CLE) credits, including 12.0 CLE hours based on a 60-minute credit hour, with 1.0 hour of Ethics.
The event was designed for legal professionals, eDiscovery practitioners, and corporate counsel seeking to enhance their understanding of complex eDiscovery issues and stay updated on industry developments.
