De-Duplication


The premise - Each ESI item is finger-printed
and then all the fingerprints are compared,
any duplicates are removed.
Reality – Can be technical issues, particularly
with using time to create the algorithm.
Hash Algorithm
Work with your supplier to understand the
issues.

The trouble with Metadata




In House Litigation support department
passed data and images.
Electronic information collected by
either client or external vendor.
ESI turned into Tiffs for disclosure
exchange.
Only images exchanged, no OCR or
metadata.

Clustering – An Overview
Allvision Computing
Clustering





Client had 33,000 documents to review
(about 330 lever arch files).
Average review = 200 docs/day
33,000 divide by 200 = 165 review days
Paralegal @ £100/hour = £700/day
Rough review cost = £115,000
Allvision Computing
Clusters
33,000 documents reduced to 11,000

Clustering Costs





33,000 documents = 100,000 pages
15p/page to scan & OCR = £15,000
Process and host the data for 3 months =
£5,000
11,000 documents = 55 review days =
£38,500
Total cost = £58,500

Review Logic Rules
Before you can put the document back into the main
store check to see it has been coded as:
1) It is Relevant AND is one of 3 states:
a) If Fully Privileged, all the correct coding is
there
b) If Part Privileged, it has a redaction as well
as all the correct coding.
c) Is set as Not Privileged.
2) OR It is not Relevant AND does not have any
Privileged status set.
3) OR has no Relevance status as it has been
categorised as a kind of ESI we wish to filter out.

Email Threads
Unknown Messages are where the system
has identified an email that is part of the
thread but the native file is not present
(missing or deleted). You can still read the
content of these emails within the inclusive
email
Allvision Computing
Green Emails with an orange star
are ‘inclusives’ and contain all of
the contents of the previous emails.
Attachments are also green
meaning that you should review
them too.

Listing of Privileged documents
Make sure your software lets you separate out a Privileged attachment
from the rest of the email "family". Recent versions of some packages
allow this, older ones don't, check with your vendor.
