Claim Evidence Index + Rubric (Tom Ronnkvist)

Disclaimer: I’m not a lawyer and this is not legal advice. This is an organized evidence index and a neutral rubric you can review/edit before filing or presenting in court.

Notes on duplicates / overlap

• DOC01 and DOC14 contain the same April 23, 2025 refund/filing threat email; DOC01 appears to be a forwarded copy.
• DOC05 and DOC06 are effectively the same July 2024 ISA-card-information thread.
• DOC12 and DOC17 both reference receipt #1129 for the add-in card; DOC12 is the Zettle email receipt format, DOC17 is a POS-style receipt.
