What's New in TimeMap 3.0

By William M. Jeter
February 27, 2004

Having used TimeMap since the original version, I was already a satisfied user, and had already realized the impact that a timeline can have on a jury. Even before the original version of TimeMap was introduced by CaseSoft, I had realized that having facts in chronological order makes it easier for a jury to understand. I found the original version of TimeMap very useful, and when TimeMap 2.0 came out, it improved two particular areas of importance; the first being the ability to print charts wider than five pages, and the second, the ability to send information to CaseMap, one of CaseSoft's other products. The changes that have now been added under TimeMap 3.0 are extraordinary.

As a trial lawyer, I was at times confronted with objections by opposing counsel that the description we placed inside a fact box was a mischaracterization of the document. On some occasions, judges with a low tolerance for technology displays would sustain the objection on some obscure basis of “why don't you just use the actual document.” This is exactly what TimeMap 3.0 now gives you the ability to do. Undoubtedly, this is the most significant factor in this new release of TimeMap. This new feature gives you the ability to link scanned documents into TimeMap, and then link them with a particular fact box.
