The legal case management (LCM) system is software aimed for use by not-for-profit legal advice centres in order to make better follow-ups of their cases, including client consultations and court events.

This version is the first official release resulting from the ongoing collaboration of the LCM developers with the Cambridge Independent Advice Centre (CIAC).

This new version of LCM includes minor bug-fixes as well as a few minor feature enhancements:
-  Accessability has been improved in the “general” sections of cases, clients and organisations.
-  Mandatory keywords are now validated as such (and no longer lost on form error/reload).
-  Fixed bug when the “income, civil_status and gender” fields are activated from the site config (after cases are already created).
-  Fixed bug in UK translation.
