  • Patent number: 10713218
    Abstract: An electronic-discovery system and method, wherein content items and hold anchors are stored in a repository, tracking objects and representational anchor objects are stored in a database system, and the tracking objects represent the content items and the representational anchor objects represent the hold anchors. A first hold anchor is used for placing a hold on the content items for a first defined period of time, and a first representational anchor object and one or more of the tracking objects are used for representing and tracking the holds for the first defined period of time. When the first defined period of time expires, a second hold anchor is used for placing the hold on the content items for a second defined period of time, and a second representational anchor object and the tracking objects are used for representing and tracking the holds for the second defined period of time.

  • Publication number: 20160019525
    Abstract: A method, a computer program product, and a computer system for classifying mobile payments as records are provided. When a payment transaction is made via a mobile device, the mobile device sends a payment receipt, as well as payment time and location, to a remote records management server for automatic declaration and classification. Four record classification schemes, which make search, retention, and disposition more efficient, are disclosed. The four schemes are amount-based, timing-based, location-based, and combination of amount/timing/location.
