  • Without Complications
    Litigation Solutions COMPLIANCE WITHOUT COMPLICATIONS: FOIASOFTWARE SOLUTIONS FROM LEXISNEXIS Complying with the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) is critical to the success of our democracy. But having an understanding and appreciation of open government does not change the fact that complying with these mandates is incredibly time and cost intensive. LEXISNEXIS.COM/LITIGATION The Department of Justice Summary of Annual FOIA Reports for Fiscal Year 2015 found that: • The 100 agencies subject to FOIA transparency requirements received more than 713,168 requests in fiscal 2015 while processing “a record high number of nearly 770,000 requests.” • During the 2015 fiscal year, FOIA administration required 4,122 full-time staff members. • The total estimated cost of all FOIA-related activities across government during 2015 was $480,235,968. • Nearly 94 percent of the total cost was attributed to the processing of requests and appeals by agencies, with only 6 percent going to litigation. These numbers are driven by the fact that FOIA requests are not limited to parties involved in a particular case. Anyone may make a request without having to disclose why they need the information. Additionally, government agencies must comply with amendments to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedures (FRCP), which require precise recordkeeping in regard to electronic discovery process, so any Freedom of Information Act documents used in civil cases must comply with this regulation. With a long history of developing solutions for eDiscovery, LexisNexis® is here to help. We work with agencies to apply the right mix of technologies to meet the challenge of responding to FOIA requests.

  • THE CHALLENGE of INNOVATION in LAW the CHALLENGE Do Occur, in Doctrine, in Procedure, in Jurisprudential Understanding, and in Legal Education
    Law is changing. Although both specialists and society as a whole often act as if it is an un-changing 1 monolith, any rational commentator must note that it has evolved over time. Changes (Eds) TOMASI OLIVER R. GOODENOUGH and MARTA AMEDEO SANTOSUOSSO, IN LAW THE CHALLENGE OF INNOVATION THE CHALLENGE do occur, in doctrine, in procedure, in jurisprudential understanding, and in legal education. The factors which drive innovation in law include social transformation, cultural change, and, importantly, the technological possibilities of the times for creating, storing and applying legal information. New technologies can also require new OF INNOVATION doctrinal developments. Such changes often do not come easily for the legal system. The myth of stability is maintained in part because the acceptance by the public rests on this assumption. It remains a myth, nonetheless. IN LAW The impact of innovation on law is clearly two-fold: on the one side, innovation invests the way law is created, managed, and applied.
