## Detailed Findings

### 1. richard-c-litman profile page

- **Last Wayback capture:** June 21, 2025 (20250621022337)
- **Content:** "RICHARD C. LITMAN, PATENT ATTORNEY" — no "Retired"
- **Current live:** 404 (page removed)
- **No captures after June 21, 2025** — the profile URL was either removed or no longer crawled

### 2. professionals page (team listing)

**June 21, 2025** (https://web.archive.org/web/20250621022531/https://nathlaw.com/professionals/):
- Richard C. Litman listed with "PATENT ATTORNEY"
- Link to richard-c-litman profile

**September 5, 2025** (https://web.archive.org/web/20250905221423/https://nathlaw.com/professionals/):
- **Richard Litman does NOT appear** — removed from the team listing
- "Retired" appears next to **Gary M. Nath** ("FOUNDER, Retired") — not Litman

**October 9, 2025; January 24, 2026:**
- Richard Litman still absent from professionals page

### 3. "Retired" on the site

The "Retired" designation on later captures refers to **Gary M. Nath** (FOUNDER, Retired), not Richard Litman. No Wayback capture shows "Patent Attorney – Retired" for Richard Litman.

---

## Evidentiary Value

1. **June 21, 2025:** Litman presented as active "PATENT ATTORNEY" on both profile and professionals page — supports continued public identity use through that date.

2. **Removal (June 21 → Sept 5, 2025):** The site changed to remove Litman from the team listing. This supports the theory of **later modification** — the firm controlled how his identity was presented and then removed it, rather than it never having been used.

3. **Profile page 404:** The live richard-c-litman URL now returns 404; the June 21 Wayback snapshot is the preserved record.

## Recommendation

Capture screenshots of the June 21 vs. Sept 5 professionals page (showing Litman present vs. absent) for the evidence package. The contrast supports the modification/removal narrative.
