VELARU SPOLIATION OF ABSENCE — SPRINT J SUMMARY
Type III spoliation · negative ESI · ordinary-course prophylaxis
Nisaba LLC · August 2026
========================================================================

THESIS: Hold law focuses on preserving ChatGPT logs (Type I/II).
Mobley-era killer: Type III — never created negative records in
ordinary course (Handler lock, SILENCE, restraint at bind).

THREE TYPES:
  I   Destruction — ESI deleted after existence
  II  Non-preservation — ESI existed, hold failed
  III Absence never created — no lock before decision (THIS MEMO)

WHY POSITIVE PRESERVATION LOSES:
  - OpenAI MDL: 30-day default delete on AI logs
  - Mobley May 2026: bias tests privileged; vendor data no Rule 34 control
  - Lane A blocked -> Lane B needs process + negative proof

VELARU ARTIFACTS (ordinary course BEFORE hold):
  Handler Receipt at t0 — policy frozen before incident
  SILENCE receipt — typed non-response
  Restraint Atom — forbidden bind/hire attested
  Pre-dispute bundle — Found Scripture export
  Spoliation pack — https://velaru.onrender.com/r/{entry_id}/spoliation-pack.txt

HOLD ADDENDUM (preserve negative records):
  Handler locks BEFORE earliest disputed decision
  SILENCE + RESTRAINT for disputed period
  DO NOT backdate locks after hold without archiving prior state

ONE-LINER: Courts punish deleted ChatGPT logs. Mobley punishes
employers who never created proof the classifier was frozen.
