## Checking plan

**Source-by-source verification**

SC Gen 23 contemplates chronologies, indexes and summaries. They are still checked against the documents, and they are not a back door into witness evidence.

- What the AI does: Draft a chronology, index or document summary from documents the lawyer has cleared under paragraph 9A.
- What the lawyer does: Clear the documents for the tool, then check every date and description against the source.
- 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.

## Checks the lawyer makes

1. Apply paragraph 9A before upload.
2. Keep the product as a chronology, index or summary, which the note discusses as a permitted use.
3. Check each row against the document.
4. Stop if the next step is witness evidence or an expert report. Those have their own paragraphs.

## 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 New South Wales

**Deliverable**: A chronology or index with a document reference on each row.

**Inputs**

- Documents cleared under paragraph 9A
- The questions the chronology must answer

**Example**: A transcript summary can list what was said. It cannot become the witness’s words in an affidavit.

**Stop and escalate when**

- The documents are subpoenaed or suppressed and paragraph 9A has not been satisfied.
- The output is being pasted into an affidavit or a character reference.
