## Checking plan

**Source-by-source verification**

Trace relied-on content to independent sources and check for relevant material the output has missed.

- What the AI does: Working with the lawyer from the timeline, the decision and the governing procedure, draft the family's appeal or review submission: the decision, the procedural defects, the grounds and the outcome sought.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer settles the grounds, checks each procedural step claimed to be missing against the instrument and the timeline, confirms the submission is made to the right reviewer in time, and confirms the family approves it.
- 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.

## Checks the lawyer makes

1. Confirm the decision is reviewable and identify the reviewer and the time limit under the governing instrument.
2. Check each procedural defect alleged against the timeline and the text of the instrument.
3. Confirm the outcome sought is one the reviewer can give.

## 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.
