To Discovery And Beyond: A Comprehensive Look At Argentina’S Data Protection Laws, Sean Mccleary
To Discovery And Beyond: A Comprehensive Look At Argentina’S Data Protection Laws, Sean Mccleary
University of Miami Inter-American Law Review
This article strives to shed light on the interplay between discovery practice under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, Argentina's data protection laws, and the ever-present possibility of discovery sanctions. For all intents and purposes, data protections laws serve as a double-edged sword that seek to protect an individual's privacy; however, data protection laws were not designed with litigation in mind. And because of that, it can be difficult for an Argentine company to comply with a discovery request that would implicate an individual's data privacy under Argentine law.

Balancing Judicial Independence And Accountability In A Transitional State: The Case Of Thailand, David Pimentel
Articles
