## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Arbitration & Alternative Dispute Resolution](https://ailawframework.com/practice/arbitration-and-alternative-dispute-resolution.md) |
| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | Build the bundle index from the exhibits the lawyer has marked, and a chronology of dated documents. Put proposed facts in a separate list, each with an exhibit number. Do not write text for the tribunal to adopt. |
| What the lawyer must review | The lawyer writes anything the tribunal is asked to adopt. 9 U.S.C. § 2 makes the written agreement enforceable on the stated grounds and does not prescribe a bundle. Formal Opinion 512 and Rule 1.6: the bundle contains client information and is assembled in a confidential tool, and the lawyer checks exhibit numbers before the bundle is lodged. |
| Written for | United States |

## Checking plan

- What the AI does: Build the bundle index from the exhibits the lawyer has marked, and a chronology of dated documents. Put proposed facts in a separate list, each with an exhibit number. Do not write text for the tribunal to adopt.
- Basis: Checked against the linked sources on 22 October 2026. Confirm the current instrument before reliance.

## Notes

- A fact the tribunal is asked to adopt is the lawyer’s text. The tool’s list stays a working paper.
- Hearing procedure follows the agreement and any order already made. No institutional hearing rule was opened.
