  • Can yahoo chat transcripts be used as legal evidence?
    • View 1 : We are not aware of any precedent in India, but we know that in US cases (the ones in our knowledge are 'Payment default' cases) have been decided with reference to chat transcripts. Gtalk stores/has an option to store chat transcripts in Googles server, even though yahoo has only an option to store chat transcripts in the client software they also should be maintaining a server log of the same for a specified period of time(as an industry/legal/madatory norm).


    • View 2 : If your chat transcripts (which u saved) are disputed by the other party, the court can/should ask for expert opinion, in this case it would be asking yahoo/msn/gtalk for authetification of this transcript. Which they may do in any method(some may have confidential server logs, some may have some other methods of authetificaiton) but the court will only be concerned about the chat host's/expert' s authetification.
