Millions of federal court records are being destroyed to save money | iWatch
News
The federal courts are destroying millions of judicial case records that
have been stored in the Federal Records Centers of the National Archives for
decades, all in an effort to save money.
The plan is to destroy all records on cases that did not go to trial that
were filed between 1970 and 1995. For other records, the federal judiciary
has reduced the current record retention time from 25 to 15 years in an
effort to cut costs. All cases that went to trial or were filed before 1970
will be kept.
