Offline LegalServer will warn the user when there is low memory, and also alert the user when memory is full. If memory becomes completely full, the application will not function properly.
Offline LegalServer is primarily designed to provide you with read-only information about cases, outreaches, and clinics you may need to service while the internet is out due to a disaster. The other primary feature is to support creating new intake records for people you screen during a disaster. Not all information or features can function offline, since without internet access, you are disconnected from the full LegalServer database.
