To see where your logs are stored, and if they are stored at all, you need to check out your preferences.
For both the MSN Messenger logs and the Messenger Plus! logs the log directories can be set (And logging can be enabled/disabled) to whatever directory you want.
For MSN Messenger check out
Tools > Options > Messages > Message History (or similar).
For Messenger Plus! check out
Plus! > Preferences > Logging > Chat Logging.
Look at those both settings to see where you need to look for your log directory. If logging wasn't enabled or there is no directory set to save your logs to, then there is no way you could "retrieve" chat logs as they were never logged anyways.

Also note that log files often don't hold much value in court (and in some USA states are even totally useless and can't be used at all as proof or evidence). And sueing a person because he insulted you? Isn't that taking it a bit too far?
