`

`Case 1:17-cv-02097-RBJ Document 88 Filed 03/28/18 USDC Colorado Page 2 of 5
`
`1.(cid:1) This order supplements all other discovery rules and orders. It streamlines Electronically
`
`Stored Information (“ESI”) production to promote a ‘just, speedy, and inexpensive
`
`determination” of this action, as required by Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 1.
`
`2.(cid:1) This order may be modified in the court’s discretion or by agreement of the parties.
`
`3.(cid:1) A party’s meaningful compliance with this Order’s provisions regarding ESI and efforts
`
`to promote efficiency and reduce costs will be considered in cost-shifting determinations.
`
`4.(cid:1) The following metadata fields shall generally be included in ESI productions if such
`
`fields exist: author, custodian, date created, date last modified, date sent, date received,
`
`sender, recipient(s), and an MD5 or SHA-256 hash value for each document. The Parties
`
`are not obligated to produce metadata for any document that does not contain such
`
`metadata in the native version of the document at the time the document is collected.
`
`5.(cid:1) Absent agreement of the parties or further order of this court, the following parameters
`
`shall apply to ESI production:
`
`A.(cid:1) General Document Image Format. Each electronic document shall be produced in
`
`either single-page Tagged Image File Format (“TIFF”) format or native format.
`
`i.(cid:1)
`
`TIFF files shall be single page and shall be named with a unique production
`
`number followed by the appropriate file extension. Load files shall be
`
`provided to indicate the location and unitization of the TIFF files. If a
`
`document is more than one page, the unitization of the document and any
`
`attachments and/or affixed notes shall be maintained as they existed in the
`
`original document. To the extent practicable, produced data will be de-
`
`duplicated across custodians.
`
`

`

`Case 1:17-cv-02097-RBJ Document 88 Filed 03/28/18 USDC Colorado Page 3 of 5
`
`ii.(cid:1)
`
`Each file produced in native format shall be named to match the beginning
`
`production number of the corresponding entries in the database load file. The
`
`confidentiality designation of the document shall appear in the document’s
`
`production file name or shall be otherwise identified at the time the document
`
`is produced, such as on a label provided with the media containing the file.
`
`B.(cid:1) Text-Searchable Documents. No party has an obligation to make its production text-
`
`searchable, but the parties agree that if a document is text-searchable as maintained in
`
`the ordinary course of business, or are converted to text-searchable format for use in
`
`this litigation, including for use by the Producing Party’s counsel, then it will be
`
`produced in the same text-searchable format at no cost to the Receiving Party.
`
`C.(cid:1) Footer. Each document image shall contain a footer with a sequentially ascending
`
`production number and any applicable confidentiality designation to the extent
`
`practicable. If placing such a footer on the document is impracticable, the file name
`
`shall include the sequentially ascending production number, along with any
`
`applicable confidentiality designation.
`
`D.(cid:1) Printing ESI. The printing party shall print any and all ESI with the footer described
`
`in paragraph 5.C. To the extent ESI is devoid of the footer described in Paragraph
`
`5.C., the printing party shall affix a legend or a stamp on the ESI that includes the file
`
`name described in Paragraph 5.C.
`
`E.(cid:1) Native Files. If any electronic document that is not in native format is not reasonably
`
`usable or intelligible due to the production format, the Producing Party shall produce
`
`such documents in its native format.
`
`

`

`
`F.(cid:1) No Backup Restoration Required. Absent a showing of good cause, no party need
`
`restore any form of media upon which backup data is maintained in a party’s normal
`
`or allowed processes, including but not limited to backup tapes, disks, SAN, and
`
`other forms of media, to comply with its discovery obligations in the present case.
`
`G.(cid:1) Voicemail and Mobile Devices. Absent a showing of good cause, voice-mails, PDAs
`
`and mobile phones are deemed not reasonably accessible and need not be collected
`
`and preserved.
`
`6.(cid:1) General ESI production requests under Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 34 and 45, or
`
`compliance with a mandatory disclosure order of this court, shall not include e-mail or
`
`other forms of electronic correspondence (collectively “e-mail”). The parties shall not be
`
`required to collect or produce e-mail in response to a discovery request absent a showing
`
`of good cause. Should e-mail discovery be permitted, the parties shall negotiate in good
`
`faith on a limited number of custodians (not to exceed 5 for the case) and search terms to
`
`apply (not to exceed ten terms per custodian).
`
`7.(cid:1) Pursuant to Federal Rule of Evidence 502(d), the inadvertent production of a privileged
`
`or work product protected ESI is not a waiver in the pending case or in any other federal
`
`or state proceeding.
`
`8.(cid:1) The mere production of ESI in a litigation as part of a mass production shall not itself
`
`constitute a waiver for any purpose.
`
`9.(cid:1) Except as expressly stated, nothing in this order affects the parties’ discovery obligations
`
`under the Federal or Local Rules.
`
`Dated: March (cid:21)(cid:27), 2018
