In a nutshell
ldquoCourts across the United States have now made clear that discovery of social media is fair game At the same time courts have consistently found that litigants will not be permitted to engage in social media fishing expeditions rather litigants will be required to show that the sites likely contain relevant materialrdquo httpwwwsociallyawareblogcom20140331u-s-courts-evolving-approaches-to-social-media-e-discovery
