## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Taxation](https://ailawframework.com/practice/taxation.md) |
| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | Under the lawyer's direction the tool works up and revises the contentions in the appeal statement or statement of facts, issues and contentions from the objection decision's reasons, the grounds stated in the objection and the documents in the evidence index, tying each contention to a stated ground and a listed document and flagging any contention that travels outside the objection grounds or has no document behind it; the lawyer settles every contention and its authorities. The tool writes no part of the affidavits, witness statements or expert reports filed in the appeal — no draft, no scaffold, no suggested paragraphs — and AI use in anything filed is disclosed as the tribunal's and the court's practice notes require. |
| What the lawyer must review | The lawyer writes every ground and contention, then checks their own draft against the objection itself: whether each ground was stated there or requires leave to raise, how the onus of showing the assessment is excessive is discharged on each ground, and whether each asserted fact is provable from evidence the client can actually put on. The lawyer independently confirms the forum, the Part IVC filing period running from service of the objection decision, and the Court's or Tribunal's requirements for the statement as filed. |

## 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: Potential support includes preparing preliminary structure or wording and identifying points for review. Confirm the tool’s capability and permitted scope.
- What the lawyer does: Set the scope, verify the evidence, resolve exceptions and approve the final output for its intended use.
- Who reviews: Responsible lawyer with competence in the matter
- Basis: Suggested checking approach based on the task guidance. Complete the assessment for the actual tool, information and jurisdiction.
- Why: The plan reflects the described work and review requirements. Policy colours are not used to determine permission or checking.

## Checks the lawyer makes

1. Open each relied-on authority independently. Confirm its existence, current status, proposition and any quotation or pinpoint reference.
2. Confirm each factual assertion with the witness and original record. Preserve the witness’s own knowledge and words, and check the court’s rules for this document.
3. Check the current court or regulator requirements, prescribed form and attachments for the intended document and filing.
4. Check the specialist’s assumptions, qualifications and limits. Obtain the relevant expert or specialist review before relying on a technical conclusion.
5. Verify the applicable jurisdiction and the version of each relevant law, rule or instrument in force at the material time.
6. Confirm the output against the client’s instructions and the complete relevant source material, including omissions or contradictions.
7. Resolve exceptions and record the responsible lawyer’s approval of the exact output and intended use.

## Notes

- Confirm the required checking with the responsible lawyer before work starts. The checking approach does not establish permission to use AI.
