## 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 | List only the questions the lawyer has written. Do not add a question, and write no letter of instruction. |
| What the lawyer must review | You write the instructions and you decide what the expert is asked. No evidence rule was opened for this task. Do not describe a qualification test, a disclosure deadline or a report form. Formal Opinion 512: an added question is not the lawyer's question. Rule 11 will apply to any paper later filed that relies on the expert. You make that inquiry yourself. |
