knowing the City Law Department, I'd say the latter. The real culprit is the IT guy
who gave the clueless lawyer a misleading response to pass on. The lawyer likely
just doesn't know, and had to meet with the IT department to draft his response. The
IT people who helped him DO UNDERSTAND the request, and are allowing the law
dept. lawyer to deliberately mislead you in order to get out of some work or succeed
is some other bureaucratic goal.
If I thought someone was deliberately lying, I'd take that weasel's deposition and
make him or her squirm.
