What does LiST mean? LiST is the litigation support technology group, a UK-based community of litigation support, eDisclosure/eDiscovery and legal technology practitioners. In practice, “LiST” refers both to the group and to its widely used best‑practice materials for electronic disclosure/discovery, such as guidance on data processing, metadata fields, load‑file formats and document exchange protocols.
