## Checking plan

**Lawyer-led judgement**

The list is the work of checking. The note’s verification standard is meaningful human control.

- What the AI does: Extract citations, quotes and factual propositions from a draft court document into a list for human verification.
- What the lawyer does: Verify each item in a trusted source and be ready to say which passages used AI and how they were checked.
- Who reviews: Lawyer competent in the matter and the forum
- Basis: Planning guidance checked against the linked public sources on 22 September 2026. Confirm the current instrument before reliance.
- Why: The traffic light follows the consequence of an error and how much of the output the lawyer must check before it is used.
- Restriction: The lawyer leads the substantive decision. Any assistance stays inside the preparation described for this task.

## Checks the lawyer makes

1. Confirm the forum is the Supreme Court of Victoria and the note in force is SC Gen 25.
2. Fact-check and proofread. Verify each authority and quote in a trusted source.
3. Do not use one AI tool to confirm another.
4. Keep a note of which parts used AI, in case the Court asks.

## Notes

- Suggested working checks from the linked public sources. Read the source and confirm it applies to this forum and this date. The checks do not approve software or record that the work is done.

## Practical guide

Jurisdiction: Supreme Court of Victoria

**Deliverable**: A verification list and a record of how each item was checked.

**Inputs**

- The draft court document
- SC Gen 25
- AustLII or an official legislation source

**Example**: A quote that is “close enough” is corrected against the judgment or removed.

**Stop and escalate when**

- The only check was another AI tool.
- The document is an affidavit and it no longer reads as the witness’s own words.
