Attorney Skupsky has stated in the past that a three year presumption of
retention is acceptable if none can be found.

His basis

The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980, statutes in four states, records
retention standards established by the majority of the record keeping
requirements in federal laws, and realistic business practices support
the three year presumption, and not a three year fact.

Good morning all!  It's been a few years since I've posted to this
site,
but have continued to "lurk" since I learn so much!  My question this
time is about all those documents not covered by a retention schedule.
My manager seems to remember a "2-year rule" -- a procedure that says
documents not covered by a retention schedule must be destroyed after
2
years.  Does anyone have any input about such a rule or do you have a
policy in place that requires something similar?  Thank you for any
information you can provide!
