Answer to Question 1

As part of the Rule 26 discovery plan, the parties may include a claw-back provision. This provision is an agreement about what the parties should do if privileged or confidential material is inadvertently disclosed. The agreement will address the return of the materials, as well as limit the waiver of the privilege.

Answer to Question 2

This development has caused an explosion in the amount of electronic information. Because electronic documents are so easily created and stored, there are few physical limits on retention.
