Email threading is becoming more and more prevalent in the world of e-discovery. It can be a valuable tool for cost-saving and efficiency in document review and production. Many parties are not familiar with or do not understand this technology. In a nutshell, it identifies the most recent strings of an email and excludes all the smaller pieces that make up that larger string. If an email branches off into a separate thread, then the technology will include that thread for review as well. However, if an email has an attachment and subsequent replies omit that attachment, then the original email with the attachment also would be included for review.
