Available Sections in Litigation Settings
In Nextpoint Litigation you will find Available Sections under Settings. Here, you can simplify the interface by disabling sections you don't intend to utilize in a particular database.
A couple of use-case examples are provided below, but first, let's review how you can easily enable or disable sections in Litigation:
- Navigate to MORE > Settings > General in your Litigation database.
- To display both Documents and Transcripts (Deponents/Proceedings), make sure both boxes are checked and click "Set Sections". This is the default setting in any new Litigation database.
- To display only Documents, uncheck Transcripts (Deponents/Proceedings) to disable that section, and click "Set Sections".
- To display only Transcripts (Deponents/Proceedings), uncheck Documents to disable that section, and click "Set Sections".
- To display only Documents, uncheck Transcripts (Deponents/Proceedings) to disable that section, and click "Set Sections".
- If you need to enable a disabled section at any time, Advanced Users can do so by navigating back to MORE > Settings > General > Available Sections and make adjustments accordingly.
Use-Case Examples
- When working with an expert witness, you may want to exchange specific documents/exhibits to a secondary database for his/her review. Disabling the Transcripts section in this example would help the witness maintain a targeted review.
- In mass litigations, it may be useful to have a Master Exhibits database (with only the Documents section enabled) and a separate transcripts database (with only the Transcripts sections enabled). You can then take the necessary evidence (exhibits & transcripts) and exchange to a new database for a particular trial.
