## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Administrative & Public Law](https://ailawframework.com/practice/administrative-and-public-law.md) |
| Human involvement | Red: Lawyer writes; AI may check, clarify or collect data |
| How AI is used | List each passage the file marks as tool-generated and each citation in that passage. Mark a citation that has not been opened. Write no sentence of the tribunal document and no disclosure paragraph. |
| What the lawyer must review | If the document is filed in federal court, Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11 is the signature certification and Model Rule 3.3 is the candor rule. Formal Opinion 512 requires the lawyer to review analysis and citations, and to correct errors, before a court submission. Model Rule 1.1 Comment 8 is the duty to understand the technology. You write any disclosure the forum requires. No judge's standing order was opened. |

## Checking plan

- What the AI does: List each passage the file marks as tool-generated and each citation in that passage. Mark a citation that has not been opened. Write no sentence of the tribunal document and no disclosure paragraph.
- Basis: Checked against the linked sources on 22 October 2026. Confirm the current instrument before reliance.

## Notes

- A state tribunal's own practice note was not opened. Ask what that forum requires before you copy a federal rule across.
- Rule 11(d) keeps Rule 11 off discovery papers. A document filed with the tribunal is not discovery.
