Metadata Strategies by Albert Kassis

This document discusses how metadata from electronic documents can provide useful information in litigation. Metadata is data about a document that is automatically captured by software and includes information like document edits, authorship, dates of edits and printing, and file paths. This hidden data can help establish knowledge of a document, reveal changes from drafts, and expose patterns of potential bias. Metadata allows attorneys to gain insights about document handling that may not be evident from just the content.
