U.S. DOJ Anti-trust
Division Upgrades to Summation Blaze LG, Gold Edition as Standard
Litigation Support Software
San
Francisco, CA - February 14, 2003 - Long-standing Summation
users at the DOJ Anti-trust division will be upgraded to Summation's
latest litigation support software system, Summation® Blaze
LG, Gold Edition this winter. DOJ Anti-trust made extensive use
of Summation in the litigation and trial of its anti-trust case
against Microsoft, among other noteworthy battles. Anti-trust
is one of several DOJ divisions that have an enterprise license
of Summation and that are rolling out the latest version to their
entire Division.
Summation
has provided substantive integration of transcripts and documents
from a single, unified user interface since its inaugural product
in 1988. Summation was one of the first litigation support software
products to introduce media integration - support for electronic
images of paper documents in the early 1990's. This media integration
was recently extended to incorporated electronic document discovery
media -- computer files and email. Finally, Summation software
offers architectural integration - search, retrieve, annotate,
manage, organize and collaboratively use evidence and work-product
hosted in Saturn/Blaze, MS SQL, or MS Access databases delivered
over a LAN or over the Web. This three-dimensional integration
coupled with Summation's intuitive Case Explorer interface is
leading more and more lawyers to hands-on use of the software.
