[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As an attorney... it's still discoverable. Jeff, you'd better save it in case it gets subpoena'ed, you're now on notice that it's possible. OP, you'd better tell your lawyer about the thread's existence so your lawyer can figure out what steps, if any, to take. OP, you should also know that deliberately trashing evidence (ex: asking Jeff to delete a thread) can get your case deep-sixed real fast. [/quote]

this is pretty ridiculous.  Jeff is not a party to any sort of existent/non-existent case, he has no obligation to retain anything.   I haven't read the thread, but it couldn't be evidence- it's just the OP saying what happened.   Signed- also a litigating attorney.[/quote]

Really?  You're an attorney and you don't see how it could be evidence?  NP here, also a litigator, and it clearly could be evidence.  If the OP made a statement against interest that the other side found useful, hearsay exception right there.  Clearly, other possibilities as well.  [/quote]

The win goes to 13:24 -- while it could be evidence, Jeff has no obligation to preserve it.  Sorry 13:26, please turn in your bar card.[/quote]

He may have had no obligation to preserve it; that is different from responding to a request to "delete" it (ha!) where such request clearly and unambiguously contemplates its use in litigation. [/quote]
