Advise on an application for particulars of a pleading
Key facts
- Human involvement
- RedLawyer-led
- How AI is used
- From the pleading, list the allegations the instructions say do not give fair notice, and whether a defence has been filed. Do not decide that the particulars are inadequate and do not draft the request.
- What the lawyer must review
- The lawyer decides whether rule 16.45 is met and what particulars to seek. The lawyer writes the application. The note to the rule says the Court may at trial refuse to allow a case outside the pleading. That is for the lawyer to consider. It is not a result the tool states.

Do not decide that the particulars are inadequate and do not draft the request. The tool writes nothing into the document. Substantive advice, judgement and any restricted content remain with the responsible human. |
| Lawyer | Perform the substantive analysis and decisions. Independently check any permitted supporting work and approve the exact output for its intended use. |
