chronology

To build a litigation chronology from eDiscovery productions, the Skill extracts dated events from Bates sets and custodian manifests, de-duplicates them, and organizes them into a tagged timeline. It attributes every entry to its exact Bates range or connector retrieval source.

De-duplicating events in a statement of facts timeline requires merging repeated occurrences across multiple files. This Skill automatically consolidates duplicate dated events and tags each remaining entry with provenance, linking it to the exact file path or Bates citation.

Yes, you can tag litigation chronology events by significance according to your case theory. The Skill assigns priority indicators (🔴/🟡/⚪) to events based on their relevance to pivot facts, and can generate a filtered statement-of-facts narrative skeleton.

Yes, a mandatory privilege posture gate is enforced for all discovery documents. The Skill requires selecting an A-cleared, B-mixed with per-entry flags, or C-aborted privilege posture before processing, ensuring privileged information is handled correctly in the final timeline.

To generate witness-specific timelines from a matter history extraction, the Skill filters the consolidated chronology by custodian or witness names. It processes your declared document sources and matter theory to produce targeted, isolated timelines for individual witnesses.

Yes, chronology file updates are tracked with versioned diffs. The Skill writes an updated chronology file after each extraction or modification, preserving provenance tagging for every legal and date assertion while maintaining a clear record of changes.
