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.
