Accounting firm acknowledged it could send the documents by e-mail but refused on the phone, said to go to the company's office.
Company wouldn't let me in the office, blamed Thanksgiving, and lied about the office being closed when it obviously was not.
We're talking about sending an e-mail with a PDF in the middle of a business day when employees were clearly at work in the office. That's it. E-mail can be sent from anywhere in the world. And the accounting firm was willing and able to send it, just not willing to comply with the law because its client said not to.
I don’t think it was obviously open - Just because it was staffed doesn’t mean it was a regular work day.
You’d have to read the law very closely but as someone who has had a trespassing ticket and even went to court, you will likely find no sympathy nor cure by trespassing, nor would the average cop care. I would not be surprised if the doorman telling you to fuck off was good enough to count as a refusal to provide documents, which would help your case down the road but would automatically place you trespassing
