[Resolved] unable to delete layout and template

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:

The issue here is that the user was unable to delete their content template that was assigned to a view that was deleted.

Solution:

The reason that the user was unable to delete the content template was that the view was still in the trash.

In order for you to completely delete a content template for a view you will need to completely delete the view out of the trash.
