How does electronic differ from paper?
• Electronic data differs from paper documents in a number of important ways. Most obviously, electronic data is not accessible without the use of intervening technology – usually, a computer. Electronic data also tends to proliferate in significantly greater volumes, due to the ease with which it is created. Electronic data is persistent – that is, electronic data is difficult to delete. Electronic data also contains dynamic or changeable content. Each of these differences has implications for the manner in which electronic data is treated in discovery.
