class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The \u201cStatus reason\u201d dropdown did not display reason options for an active matter if the same dropdown had previously been opened empty in a closed matter.

After the fix, the integration no longer processes matter requests but only opened matters.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The LEDES bookkeeping integration did not properly close open connections but instead crashed in certain situations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"CSI Lawyer version 13.0 has been published and it is available for customers downloading their software updates from the web.
