Text: The parties dispute whether Chief Nichols drove Kimberly Byler to the airport on May 15, 2007 and, consequently, whether they discussed Adventure Tours’ tax obligations to Yakutat at that time. Adventure Tours asserts that Chief Nichols falsely testified that he gave Kimberly a ride to the airport. Adventure Tours supports this assertion with two allegations. First, Adventure Tours alleges that Chief Nichols’s testimony regarding the order of the interviews of Kimberly and an Adventure Tours employee is false. Chief Nichols testified that he interviewed Kimberly before the employee, but Adventure Tours asserts that Kimberly was interviewed after the employee. Second, Adventure Tours argues that the computer and audio evidence confirming Chief Nichols’s testimony regarding the time and order of the interviews was altered in order to support his false version of the events of May 15, 2007. Yakutat disputes these accusations, contending that Chief Nichols testified truthfully regarding the order and time of the interviews, and that there is no evidence to support Adventure Tours’ allegations of evidence tampering.
