## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Class Actions / Representative Proceedings](https://ailawframework.com/practice/class-actions-representative-proceedings.md) |
| Human involvement | Red: Lawyer writes; AI may check, clarify or collect data |
| How AI is used | Set the approved scheme beside this person's figures, and list the Part VIB tests on a standalone Part 3-5 claim. Do not add a percentage group costs line. The part 13A sections opened do not create one. Do not value either path. |
| What the lawyer must review | Write the comparison. Use the same heads of loss on both paths. Put Part VIB on the Part 3-5 claim. Do not put the Queensland injury scale on that claim. Do not invent a percentage group costs order. Section 103R provides for distribution orders, not that percentage. Require section 103R approval for the group settlement. |

## Checking plan

**Lawyer-led judgement**

A part 13A settlement is approved under s 103R. The opened text does not create a percentage group costs order of the kind in another state's statute. The lawyer writes the comparison and does not assume a Federal Court percentage either.

- What the AI does: Set the approved scheme beside this person's figures, and list the Part VIB tests on a standalone Part 3-5 claim. Do not add a percentage group costs line. The part 13A sections opened do not create one. Do not value either path.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer writes the part 13A comparison.
- Who reviews: Lawyer competent in this practice area
- Basis: Checked against the linked sources on 23 October 2026. Confirm the current instrument before reliance.

## Checks the lawyer makes

1. Use the categories in the approved scheme.
2. Keep s 87S and the indexed s 87M amount on the standalone Part 3-5 side.
3. Do not state a current dollar cap.
4. Do not draft an opt-out notice in this task.

## Notes

- If a submission is filed in the Supreme Court of Queensland, Practice Direction 5 of 2025 requires a named practitioner to verify the references. It is not a general ban on generative AI.

## Practical guide

Jurisdiction: Supreme Court of Queensland, part 13A

**Deliverable**: The lawyer's comparison for one injured group member, without an invented costs percentage.

**Inputs**

- The approved scheme
- This person's figures
- The s 103R orders sought

**Example**: Illustrative example: The scheme pays by injury category. The lawyer compares that category with a Part VIB assessment and does not insert a percentage costs deduction that part 13A, as opened, does not create.

**Stop and escalate when**

- The tool writes the advice.
- The injury scale is applied to the Part 3-5 claim.
