Most of the actions have to be done in Massachusetts. I am assuming the contract says something about sales. Therefore, yes the sales records would be important.
The only way they wouldn't be is if the defendant didn't do something that was in the contract.
Oh and proving financial hurt is very hard to prove and yes it is on the plaintiff to prove the defendant hurt him.
Oh and authors have an even harder time with contract disputes for the pure and simple fact of authors know how to read.
