# Counsel advice — Isotope contamination case production check

## Executive assessment

For Isotope Specialty Chemicals matter CB-LD-2709, the review identified 16 source-supported exceptions requiring action before 2026-10-03. The assessment concerns County of Briar v. Isotope and the supplied record for Louisiana.

## Method and record coverage

The review inventoried all 96 production files, read the 33 controlling, corroborating, and control records, searched the email exports, and checked metadata for the designated chain-of-custody sample. Conclusions are limited to the synthetic production supplied for this benchmark matter.

## Findings

### F-01 — custodian omission (critical)

The records do not reconcile for custodian omission: one source states the operative date is 2025-01-08 under control reference CB-LD-2709-A465, while the corroborating source states the acknowledged date is 2025-02-02 under response reference CB-LD-2709-J751.

# Counsel advice — Juniper franchise dispute discovery audit

## Executive assessment

For Juniper Table Restaurants matter CB-LD-2710, the review identified 16 source-supported exceptions requiring action before 2026-10-07. The assessment concerns Oak Street Franchisees Association and the supplied record for Florida.

## Method and record coverage

The review inventoried all 96 production files, read the 33 controlling, corroborating, and control records, searched the email exports, and checked metadata for the designated chain-of-custody sample. Conclusions are limited to the synthetic production supplied for this benchmark matter.

## Findings

### F-01 — custodian omission (critical)

The records do not reconcile for custodian omission: one source states the operative date is 2025-03-10 under control reference CB-LD-2710-A946, while the corroborating source states the acknowledged date is 2025-04-06 under response reference CB-LD-2710-J372.
