evilweasel posted:I thought basically every doc review database had that ability. Each attachment is a separate image that can be redacted and you're not producing the raw files. I’m not using any doc review software. This is just in-house responding to a TPS. I don’t have that much to produce. I’m already producing the contract that needs some light redacting, but some of the emails I’m producing have the contract as an attachment too. I’ll probably just send the redacted contract, remove the attachments, and ID the emails I removed the contract from. Will I get sanctioned?

Print everything you need to produce but redact to PDF, redact the PDFs, and then produce those. Including the emails with attachments that need to be redacted but do not need to be redacted themselves.

I was just hoping for a shortcut.

Why should I be mandated on pain of sanction to work for free again?

GamingHyena posted:Why should I be mandated on pain of sanction to work for free again? Even if they paid you, it’s problematic. Courts don’t order specific performance on service contracts. Why should I have to do something even if I’m compensated if I don’t want to? There’s no way it can be mandatory. But it could be more inviting and incentivized.

It's not good policy. That's just how you'd do it to make it effective.

"A legal obligation to work for free is normally slavery, but Alexis de Tocqueville once said that lawyers are the true learned, genteel, gentry class of America, and blah blah civic duty, and blah blah prestige, and blah blah honourable to perform a public service, and therefore it's not slavery if lawyers do it." - Your state bar association.

It's because you get to be part of a protectionist guild. Imho there instead should be progressive bar dues funding a legal aid program that hires attorneys.

evilweasel posted:Having it replace CLE would be good. I think that’s already an option in Tennessee, but it’s some ludicrous conversion rate like 10 pro bono hours = 1 CLE hour. And it caps out at 8 CLE hrs. Even lazy pro bono work is more useful than CLE though.

evilweasel posted:by the way, highlight your redactions once you're done, ctrl-c, open word, ctrl-v I just did so and I couldn't obtain the redacted data. Might not be full proof, but it does save it as a new pdf with meta data removed in Acrobat Pro 2017. Usually for me it's just to make stuff court filling eligible - removing ssn and birthdays. Not trying to hide the big alien secrets of the state.

In Texas if you teach a cle you get credit for the time researching and writing the class. If I spend 30 hours on a one hour presentation my cle is done for 2 years.

If he hasn't passed the bar yet (or even taken the bar) then doc review isn't such a bad way to while away the rest of the year. I'd be surprised if you could even get a PD job with no law license. Plus, since they're already taking the dregs of the legal profession I doubt they drug test for doc review so he's free to

Long term a PD job is way better for you career than some doc review job. OTO, if you didn't want a PD job, save it for someone who does.

This CLE talk reminded me that I was supposed to file papers for my optional bar admission, but instead I'm in a hospital, so it's another half a year wait for me. We do have something resembling CLE for bar members

I'm in a good one, forunately, but whatever nightmarish stories you are referring to are true for ~90% of the Russian hospitals Still the bar is loving stupid for only accepting applications during a short 4-day period and only if I physically come there myself with a bunch of hard copies.
