## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Personal Injury & Compensation (workers compensation, CTP/TAC, medical negligence)](https://ailawframework.com/practice/personal-injury-and-compensation.md) |
| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | Build an inventory of the goods, batch, packaging and any recall notice. Note whether a ban is a Queensland interim ban or a Commonwealth ban. Do not treat a recall as proof of a defect. |
| What the lawyer must review | Decide what is kept and whether a hold letter goes to a supplier. Check a Queensland interim ban: 60 days, which may be extended by 30 days twice, and only in Queensland. Check both. A Commonwealth interim ban and a permanent ban apply nationally. Do not treat the supplier's mandatory report as a plaintiff filing. |

## Checking plan

**Verify against sources**

The recall record is national. A Queensland interim ban is the state difference. Court preservation rules were not opened.

- What the AI does: Build an inventory of the goods, batch, packaging and any recall notice. Note whether a ban is a Queensland interim ban or a Commonwealth ban. Do not treat a recall as proof of a defect.
- What the lawyer does: The lawyer decides what is preserved and what the Queensland ban covers.
- Who reviews: Lawyer competent in this practice area
- Basis: Checked against the linked sources on 23 October 2026. Confirm the current instrument before reliance.

## Checks the lawyer makes

1. Match the batch code to the invoice and to any recall on the file.
2. Keep packaging, marks and warnings.
3. Do not treat a ban as proof of a safety defect.
4. Do not load injury photographs into a public tool.

## Notes

- If a submission is filed in the Supreme Court of Queensland, Practice Direction 5 of 2025 requires a named practitioner to verify the references. It is not a general ban on generative AI.
- No Queensland rule number for preservation of property was opened.

## Practical guide

Jurisdiction: The goods themselves, and any Queensland interim ban

**Deliverable**: An inventory and a note of any Queensland interim ban.

**Inputs**

- Photographs and batch codes
- The public recall record
- Any ban notice

**Example**: Illustrative example: A Queensland interim ban is in force and there is no Commonwealth permanent ban. The lawyer records the 60-day period and the two possible 30-day extensions, and keeps the goods.

**Stop and escalate when**

- A Queensland interim ban is described as national.
- The batch code is not recorded.
