Where this comes from
The official form is published by sat.justice.wa.gov.au; this page is a completion guide. Last checked on 2026-10-22.
When to use it
Use when starting a review of a decision, or an original application, at the State Administrative Tribunal of Western Australia, through the eCourts Portal. Do not invent a form number. The lawyer checks the enabling Act, the time limit and which portal form applies. A guardianship application already has its own guide.
Used for these tasks
Each task page says how far AI may help with the task and what the lawyer must review.
How AI may be used
AI may check a draft against the current form and list gaps or the wrong form. The lawyer writes the grounds and checks every filing.
AI may
- Check the draft against the current official form and list blank fields, missing attachments and inconsistent party names
- Flag when the matter looks like a different case type that uses another form
- List the time limits and lodgement steps stated on the page that was opened
AI must not
- Must not draft the grounds, the reasons or any affidavit
- Must not decide whether the decision is reviewable, or whether the application is in time
- Must not sign, file or serve the document
The lawyer checks
- The current form is the one prescribed for this review
- The decision, the authorising law and the parties match the papers
- Any internal review, stay and fee is checked against the current rules
- Any practice direction about generative tools is checked. None was stated on the page opened for this guide.
Method: how the Green, Yellow and Red levels are decided. This is guidance for planning, not legal advice.
