Prosecutors intend to prove that doctors and pharmacists are paid to review short questionnaires and then never see the patients they were prescribing medicines to. Beyond that, none of the information submitted was ever verified, authorities said.

RIAA Refuses to Pay Defense Costs Fees

The RIAA is only willing to pay one tenth of what a victorious victim of a malicious RIAA prosecution is seeking. The RIAA called the $298,995 figure "excessive" and said that it should be drastically slashed to something along the lines of $30,000. The defendant argued "As the court has previously found, the proceedings were complicated, prolonged, and made more expensive by the plaintiffs' unreasonable tactics throughout the case."

The RIAA is accused of racketeering, fraud, deceptive business practices, and a host of underhanded tactics such as seeking to directly contact the defendant's then-eight-year-old daughter under false pretenses. The trial judge has previusly ruled: "[w]hatever plaintiffs' reasons for the manner in which they have prosecuted this case, it does not appear to be justified as a reasonable exploration of the boundaries of copyright law."

Law Enforcement Has a Forensics Team - So Can You

In a computer forensics lab, the police have specialized equipment which prevents any alteration of original digital media such as hard drives, disks, and flash drives disks. In addition, they have hardware and software that will retrieve evidence from cell phones, such as text messages and pictures. For computers, specialized software is used to examine the computers and extract the evidence. Methods adopted from the International Association of Computer Investigative Specialists, a worldwide organization for computer forensics examiners, are sometimes used. At CentralLaw.com we use a forensics expert to help sort through data used in prosecution of federal indictments and state charges, fraud, hacking, theft of trade secrets, and other forms of cybercrimes.

Feds Claim No Privacy in Emails

On October 8, 2007, the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit granted the USA's request for a full-panel hearing in US v. Warshak. The case centers on the right of privacy for stored electronic communications. Can the Government merely subpoena mail and skip judicial review of a search warrant? The case presents the Government's position on Constitutional email and electronic privacy - that there isn't any.

What is eDiscovery? Expert Florida

eDiscovery describes the exchange and disclosure of electronically stored information (ESI). In December 2006 the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure were changed to include specific requirements and guidelines regarding how to handle eDiscovery.

Since more than 90% of documents are now created electronically, and less than 30% of those electronic documents are ever converted to paper, these new rules are likely to have an impact on how everyone conducts business. The new rules on preserving ESI make having an eDiscovery complaint document retention policy more important than ever before. An expert may be needed to search terabytes of data that litigants may have.
