In the era of Facebook, MySpace and Twitter, it did not take long for the trend to display every aspect of one's personal life to begin impacting litigation.  Defense lawyers, primarily in personal injury and employment discrimination cases, are asking for, and courts are granting, permission to obtain both public and private online social media content. 

 

I have had clients in my own cases asked for information regarding their screen names and on which sites they and family members post pictures and other information.  In speaking with electronic data experts, there is nothing private on-line and even deleting the information is no guarantee or safeguard that it won't someday wind up in a court case for all to see. 

 

The bottom line is be careful what you post on-line, when you put it on the web, it there for the whole world to see.

This is still happening! They are STILL being tortured and treated like full on terrorists. 

You may not be aware of the typical things they're forced to go through...…
