No specific laws identified for this ruling.
The court denied defendants' motion for spoliation sanctions, finding that the plaintiff's failure to initially produce a May 2020 email did not warrant severe sanctions under Rule 37(e) because the email was ultimately produced and there was insufficient evidence of intent to deprive. The court also found no sanctions warranted for the plaintiff's resetting of his work phone to factory settings.
