Actions Automatically Performed on Lockdown

Once a file is locked down, the following actions occur automatically:

  • Built-in history events are added to the History of the client file and cannot be disabled.
    • An event that tracks when the file enters the unlocked lockdown state.
    • An event that tracks the documents being added and deleted by any method.
  • Milestones are automatically created for all documents in the file.
  • The Auto-Compare to the Lockdown milestones is automatically turned on unless Auto-Compare is already enabled.
  • The Engagement History tracking system is automatically turned on.
  • Each locked document is shown with a lock on it () and the file displays a locked icon on the status bar. Locked CaseView documents show the status Locked in the title bar and the status bar of the document as well.

  • External files (Word, Excel, and PDF) are set to read only.
