| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Franchising & Distribution](https://ailawframework.com/practice/franchising-and-distribution.md) |
| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | Record the date the franchisor joined the register and whether any franchise agreement has been entered. Count 14 days before which no agreement is entered. Do not confirm an annual profile update, and do not invent a calendar due date. |
| What the lawyer must review | The lawyer decides whether the franchisor is new and whether the profile exists. A new franchisor must join the register at least 14 days before entering into any franchise agreement. The annual confirm-or-update is a different obligation and has no calendar date on the page used here. The Code instrument was not opened. |

## Checking plan

**Lawyer review required**

The responsible lawyer checks that the franchisor is new. No agreement is entered inside the 14 days.

- What the AI does: Record the date the franchisor joined the register and whether any franchise agreement has been entered. Count 14 days before which no agreement is entered. Do not confirm an annual profile update, and do not invent a calendar due date.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer decides whether the franchisor is new and whether the profile exists. A new franchisor must join the register at least 14 days before entering into any franchise agreement. The annual confirm-or-update is a different obligation and has no calendar date on the page used here. The Code instrument was not opened.
- 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. The 14 days run before any franchise agreement, not before the disclosure document alone.
2. This is the first join. Do not treat it as the annual profile confirm.
3. Do not state a calendar date for the annual update.

## 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.
