Play Visions Case - Latest example of poor lawyering leading to sanctions

The Play Visions, Inc. v. Dollar Tree Stores, Inc., No. C09-1769 MJP (W.D. Wash. June 8, 2011)...full opinion attached below


This case is a perfect example of how to get sanctioned by not properly dealing with e-Discovery issues. The corporate plaintiff in this matter, and their outside counsel, failed to even ask the plaintiff's I.T. department for electronic records, that plaintiff ultimately produced months later.  


For law firms that keep wanting to ignore e-Discovery and electronically stored information...be warned...you are on notice multiple times now, and the Courts are losing patience with attorneys that ignore these issues.
