New Zealand’s leading technology and eDiscovery Judge, His Honour Judge David Harvey will be delivering the Judicial Keynote session at the 2nd Annual New Zealand eDiscovery Conference. The Conference is taking place at the Stamford Plaza in Auckland on Wednesday the 19th of March 2014.
Judge Harvey has been a District Court Judge in New Zealand since 1989. Since his appointment Judge Harvey has been closely involved in Information Technology initiatives involving the Judiciary including the development of trial management software.
Judge Harvey has written about presented at many events locally and internationally in the technology domain. Most recently Judge Harvey spoke at the Courts Technology Conference 2013 in Baltimore. In addition Judge Harvey is an active participant on Twitter and writes his own Blog about Law and IT – The IT Countrey Justice.
Leading eDiscovery commentator Chris Dale mentioned in a recent blog post – Judge Harvey is one of the leading judicial thinkers on electronic discovery, electronic evidence, and the use of technology by lawyers and courts.
Judge Harvey will be looking at eDiscovery from a judicial perspective. Judge Harvey joins International keynote speaker Browning Marean from DLA Piper US as the headline speakers at the conference.
At the inaugural conference earlier this year Judge Harvey left delegates in little doubt about the importance of how lawyers address electronic information. He impressed that lawyers need to be aware of the technologies and the evolving practices that are required to manage this information.
The 2nd Annual New Zealand eDiscovery Conference is presented by E-Discovery Consulting and EY. The conference has now developed into New Zealand’s leading eDiscovery and legal technology conference, providing a platform for New Zealand legal professionals to develop their knowledge in this fast-changing area.
The event will build on the success of the inaugural New Zealand eDiscovery Conference earlier in 2013 which attracted over 100 participants and was hailed as a great success by attendees.
