In an opinion released yesterday, Judge Peck says that, in the years since Da Silva Moore, “the case law has developed to the point that it is now black letter law that where the producing party wants to utilize TAR for document review, courts will permit it.”The opinion was issued in the case Rio Tinto PLC v. Vale SA, Case 1:14-cv-03042-RMB-AJP (S.D. N.Y. March 3, 2015). The issue before Judge Peck was approval of the parties’ stipulated TAR protocol. But Judge Peck took the opportunity to address several issues of broader interest to the e-discovery community about TAR cases and protocols.
