contents We investigate the interplay between lepton flavor violation (LFV) and leptogenesis in the minimal scotogenic model, comparing high-scale hierarchical leptogenesis and low-scale resonant leptogenesis within a unified Casas--Ibarra framework. Since the same Yukawa couplings simultaneously govern radiative neutrino mass generation, charged LFV processes, and the CP asymmetry required for baryogenesis, strong phenomenological correlations arise. We show that high-scale leptogenesis remains naturally viable due to the effective decoupling between LFV and baryogenesis, while low-scale resonant leptogenesis is strongly constrained by the MEG bound on $μ\rightarrow eγ$. Nevertheless, we identify a narrow but nonvanishing resonant window where successful baryogenesis, controlled washout, and LFV safety coexist simultaneously. In particular, we obtain fully allowed benchmark points characterized by quasi-degenerate heavy fermions, resonantly enhanced CP asymmetry, and suppressed flavor violation through Casas--Ibarra phase alignment.
