the Electronic Discovery Reference Model (EDRM) is pleased to release its “General Data Protection Regulation Cross-Border Discovery Guidelines,” which have been released for public comment.  The public comment period will close on 11/20/2023. Parties that have possession, custody or control of evidence potentially relevant to U.S. litigation or investigations are typically required to identify, collect, preserve, and produce such evidence (with limited exceptions) in response to discovery requests, subpoenas or litigation demands, regardless of where that evidence is located.  Those requirements, however, may directly conflict with provisions in the European and UK General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”).
