Abstract
Given a set of documents relevant to a litigation hold and a seed set of custodians, a second set of custodians can be generated and suggested to a user. After receiving a seed set of keywords and/or custodians, documents are identified based on their relevance. Relevant documents are searched for custodian names, and appropriate custodian names are presented to a user. Additionally, based on a first set of custodians, a suggested set of custodians can be provided to a user based on relationships between the sets of custodians.
