Maybe the docs were copies of the originals, and to make sure they stay priviledged, they were destroyed so the other side cant use them. Chanbond wins again.

Chanbond's contentions were that these documents, backup documentation to the valuation, which the 13 requested in June and again in August, were attorney-client privileged. The consulting company that Chanbond hired to value the patents consulted with a notable patent attorney to determine the value. Arris subpoenaed the attorney in June and again in August at the same time they requested the documents, and both times the judge denied the subpoena. The judge denied Arris's subpoena of the patent attorney in August, but requested the documents in-camera to determine if they were attorney-client privileged. It would appear that they are, therefore, the judge had them destroyed.
