Source: The Sedona Principles, Third Edition (The Sedona Conference, 2018) are the leading consensus best-practice commentary on the production of electronically stored information in US litigation. Principle 6 holds that responding parties are best situated to evaluate and select the procedures, methodologies, and technologies for preserving and producing their own ESI — placing the burden of a defensible, documented process on the producing party. KYE Protocol™ governs whether an AI-assisted production / review process may PROCEED to a consequential litigation action with a recorded, reconstructable, replay-provable process record — so the producing party can demonstrate a defensible process when challenged. KYE does not select the review methodology or judge whether the production is substantively complete. · License: The Sedona Principles are published commentary of The Sedona Conference; KYE registry paraphrases the relevant principle's intent and cites it for mapping purposes only — no text is reproduced.
