OnPoint.legal V.2

Here are a few of the changes:

1. Case Types:
   1. When you add a case type, you must now select Civil or Criminal.  You are then able to also select what lists you would like to build when new matters are created.
   2. The Type of Case will determine what the Matter Home Page looks like.
2. Dedicated Criminal Law:
   1. Criminal Law is now integrated into OnPoint Legal

   1. All apps have been updated.
   2. Case Notes will now provide the three dots to allow editing in new Matters.
