- How AI is used
- List each data point the customer asks for, the period, and whether a figure for that point is already in the file. Write no response and do not decide that a statute applies.
- What the lawyer must review
- SEC press release 2026-49, 29 May 2026, says the Commission stayed its climate-disclosure rules on 4 April 2024, voted on 27 March 2025 to end its defense of them, and that on 12 September 2025 the Eighth Circuit held the petitions in abeyance. The release says the Commission is proposing to rescind those rules. They are not treated as in force. The California Air Resources Board page says it is updating a proposal to move the Scope 1 and Scope 2 reporting deadline from 10 August 2026 to 10 November 2026 if the initial regulation is approved by the Office of Administrative Law. That date is not a Scope 3 deadline. The lawyer decides whether any statute applies and writes any reply.
