The order Friday from Circuit Judge Diane S. Goodstein says both sides agreed to let an independent computer expert document all the data under the supervision of a trustee. Attorney David Gantt represents the WH Group and its two principal members, Kenneth Holbert Jr. and Scott Mann. Gantt said he couldn't comment while the case is in litigation. The school district filed a lawsuit this week asking that the WH Group be ordered to return the equipment and data and stopped from making any copies before turning it over. Gantt has said previously that his clients bought computers, hard drives and other items at school district auctions over a period of about six years. They didn't know when they bought the equipment that it contained information such as the Social Security numbers of thousands of students and employees and driver's license numbers, personnel files and health records of employees, Gantt has said.
