>> the case is not made as to the critical nature of these records in future litigation and the liability that their spoliation represents.<<

I have set this one out until now.  Please note that I am not a fan of storing records in basements, but having worked in state government, understand there are often no available alternatives.  Based on the experiences of folks in Grand Forks, ND, in 1997, I understand the practical impacts that the loss of records can have on things as simple as getting a loan to repair your home after the flood.

However, with regards to the statement above, can anyone provide an example were an individual or organization was punished, censured, or otherwise reprimanded by a court for a loss of records due to flooding, fire, or other catastrophic loss?
