In In re Krause, 2008 WL 1805508 (Bkrtcy.D.Kan. April 21, 2008), the bankruptcy court entered judgment in favor of the Government after finding that Gary Krause engaged in a "decades-long scheme" to keep all of his assets out of his own name while enjoying the benefits of those assets, including wiping computer hard drives. Early in the course of discovery, the Government served requests for production of documents on Krause seeking information residing on Krause's computers.  Krause failed to respond and the court issued an order compelling Krause to turnover the actual computers for inspection.  During the inspection, the Government learned that Krause had loaded and operated a wiping software program to permanently destroy or erase electronic information.  The court found that Krause willfully destroyed electronic evidence and assessed sanctions against him, including partial default judgment.  In addition, the judge threatened to hold Krause in contempt if he failed to produce other electronic information in his control.
