Well, unless it's part of discovery, which they failed to comply with in the first place. Which is why they lost the defamation trial that preceded this -- this trial was just for the amount of damages to be awarded. The rules are: 1. Don't break the law *2. Cooperate with discovery* 3. If you accidentally send too much info to the opposing counsel, obey the law and follow the rules of getting the data back and/or destroyed 4. Don't let any deadlines associated with 3 above expire without doing your part
