How AI may be used
A tool may lay out the standing order statement and fill in facts the signer gives it. The signer decides what to say about the AI use and makes the checks the statement describes.
AI may
Insert the tool name, version and uses the signer has recorded
Insert only a version of the statement that the rule or order provides and that matches the signer's account of AI use
Check that the statement sits where the rule or order says it must
AI must not
Must not state that citations, quotations or facts were checked; only the signer can say that after doing it
Must not describe the AI use more narrowly than the file record shows
Must not put prompts, privileged material or confidential client information in the statement
The lawyer checks
The current standing order has been opened on the court's own site and matches the words used
Every citation and quotation was checked by a person against an official or recognised source
The statement is placed and signed as the rule requires, by the person the rule names
For Denton County, the form is filed once per case and covers later filings; the duty to verify continues
