This Corporate Counsel article highlights a recent litigation in which Walmart avoided sanctions through the revised Federal Rules of Civil Procedure Rule 37(e) for failure to preserve electronically stored information (ESI).

Organizations should adjust their procedures to check whether an exiting employee’s data are subject to an ongoing legal hold.
