I was working on an assignment close to its deadline on the text box of an assignement. I completed it, but pressed submit right as the deadline hit at 3:00PM. That caused my screen to navigate to an "access denied" and the assignment was locked. Please tell me there is a way to retrieve this work so that I can send it to my professor and explain what had happened. 

Also, if my professor re-opened up the assignment for me, would my draft still be there?
