(Wednesday, March 19, 2014 – Marshall, Texas):
Cognitec Systems GmbH, based in Dresden, has been ordered to reproduce unredacted versions of its jurisdictional discovery.
Initially, Cognitec Systems GmbH produced a set of heavily-redacted documents and justified the redactions by citing, among other reasons, European discovery limitations. However, after a Rule CV-26(e) “hotline” hearing with Magistrate Judge Roy S. Payne, Cognitec Systems GmbH was ordered to reproduce its discovery in unredacted form by the end of the day in the United States.
