Mobile devices are ubiquitous, and are increasingly the primary device through which parties communicate, including company employees conducting business. As a result, it is increasingly likely that mobile devices will be at least a potentially relevant data source to consider in most litigation. But the discovery of mobile device data can present certain legal considerations and technical challenges with respect to scope, preservation, collection, search, and production. The Sedona Conference Working Group 1 has sought to address these considerations and challenges in its consensus-based Commentary on Discovery of Mobile Device Data.
This Commentary is intended to provide organizations, lawyers, and the judiciary with foundational information regarding mobile devices, and guidance on how to address the legal issues and technical challenges that are likely to arise regarding the discovery of mobile device data.
Join our 60-minute, live webinar with drafting team members Shauna Itri, Margaret Malloy and John Pappas, and team leads Dennis Kiker and Michelle Newcomer, to learn more about the Commentary and provide your input during the Public Comment Period, ending July 7, 2025. This webinar is free to all sponsors and Working Group Series members.
The team will answer the following questions and solicit feedback:
- Why was the Commentary needed?
- What legal considerations arise with respect to mobile device discovery?
- What technical challenges is the industry facing with respect to the preservation, collection, search, and production of mobile device data, and how does the Commentary address those challenges?
- Which issues addressed in the Commentary were more challenging than others to address, and how did the team come to a consensus on those issues?
- How will this Commentary move the law forward?
