## Checking plan

**Lawyer-led judgement**

The lawyer makes the substantive assessment. Any permitted AI assistance remains supporting work with its own checks.

- What the AI does: From the bank guarantee and the lease clause the lawyer marks, list the favouree, the amount, the expiry, and the clause number. Do not write the demand.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer decides that a call is justified, writes the demand in the form the guarantee requires, and decides whether the tenant must be told first. NSW Government guidance on retail leases says the landlord does not need to tell the tenant before claiming. The lawyer checks the instrument and the retail leases statute before relying on that guidance.
- Who reviews: Responsible lawyer with competence in the matter
- Basis: Practical workflow informed by the linked primary sources; the traffic light and working checks are editorial guidance, not a court classification.
- Why: The level reflects what the work is, the consequence of an error, and how much of the output the lawyer must independently re-derive.
- Restriction: The lawyer makes the substantive assessment. Any permitted AI assistance remains supporting work with its own checks.

## Checks the lawyer makes

1. Read the favouree and the amount off the guarantee. Do not substitute the current landlord if the guarantee has not been transferred.
2. Check the expiry before the demand is sent.
3. Do not put the coversheet's words into the demand. The lawyer writes the demand in the form the guarantee requires.

## Notes

- These are suggested working checks. Confirm the required checking with the responsible lawyer before work starts; the checking approach does not establish permission to use AI.
