When to use it
Use when CASA has issued an aviation infringement notice. Diary the date printed on the notice. Do not use this letter for a show cause notice about varying, suspending or cancelling an authorisation. That is a different process.
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 extract the offence, the amount and the due date from the notice into the decision record. The lawyer decides whether to pay or to contest, and writes any explanation that is sent.
AI may
- Copy the notice number, offence, amount, due date and authorisation number into the record
- List what CASA's page says paying does, and what a court election does, beside the client's instructions
- Add the client's existing demerit points only if they are on a CASA record in the file
AI must not
- Must not recommend paying or contesting
- Must not admit the offence in a draft that might be sent
- Must not calculate a court penalty except from the notice and the current penalty unit
The lawyer checks
- The document is an infringement notice and not a show cause notice
- The due date is the date on the notice. No period is assumed
- Demerit points and any suspension threshold are checked against the notice and the current enforcement manual chapters CASA cites
- The client has chosen, in writing, to pay or to have the matter dealt with by a court
Method: how the Green, Yellow and Red levels are decided. This is guidance for planning, not legal advice.
