back then you just rolled into trial and let it do what it do. maybe exchange some clearly relevant documents.

now you review 100,000 pages of bullshit to maybe find one "smoking gun" and depose everyone even tangentially involved with anything, then settle on the courthouse steps because you'd piss yourself if you had to actually speak in front of a jury

amazing how even when you have 100,000 documents there is almost never a smoking gun but just a bunch of bs the partner will argue is "devastating" in an msj

the only time i ever see "pages" produced used as a serious metric is when some firm is lying about how cooperative they've been in discovery (usually most of the pages come from excel spreadsheets inefficiently converted).

It’s also useful affirmatively in a motion to compel. We’ve produced 60.000 pages your honor, they’ve produced less than 2,500 as non-searchable PDFs.
