The Right Frontier Constraint (rfc) claims that antecedents are only available for anaphoric reference if they are located at the right hand side of any level of a linearly ordered discourse parse tree. We show that this constraint does hold only under certain conditions — which, however, apply for most circumstances of everyday talk. The data of our analysis in which the rfc does not hold come from a corpus of chat communication. From our findings we argue that the rfc is best viewed as a conditional constraint.
