Yes, scanned files are kept for 7 years or longer.

Our Policy is for Pleadings and correspondence, once those are scanned,
they can be recycled. All other case material will remain in the case file
until closing. At closing, materials that are items of record are kept for
storage for 7 years, others are recycled at that time. The 2 offices have
nothing at all going to storage in the last 2 years as they don't save any
thing. That is my concern.
