## Used for these tasks

- [Build a draft bill from the time records and the disclosure](https://ailawframework.com/obligations/costs-billing-and-litigation-funding/build-a-draft-bill-from-the-time-records-and-the-disclosure.md)
- [List the matters a costs assessor may consider](https://ailawframework.com/obligations/costs-billing-and-litigation-funding.md#A42-PE20261022-26)

## How AI may be used

The tool indexes the information-form fields from the order and the bill and does not sign the form or state the costs claimed.

**AI may:**

- Copy the proceeding number, the parties and a short description of the costs order from the order already on the file.
- Diary that the form is submitted before filing, and list dates in the next two months when the filing party is unavailable.

**AI must not:**

- Do not sign the form, and do not enter the professional charges, disbursements or total.
- Do not decide whether the matter is opposed, unopposed, ex parte or by consent.
- Do not state a hearing date. The hearing-return field is marked court use only.

**The lawyer checks:**

- The form page says party-party proceedings initiated after 1 March 2016 are no longer listed in the monthly callover unless the Court otherwise directs.
- Email the completed form to costs.court@supcourt.vic.gov.au, which is the address printed on the party-party costs page, to get a hearing date.
- If the form says the respondent will be self-represented, the party-party page says the matter is listed for directions unless the applicant gives a special reason.
- The page says a fee is payable unless there is a fee waiver. The fee amount is not on this form.
- Health information stays in a firm-controlled tool. Check ASCR r 9, APP 11, and whether any disclosure would be a notifiable breach under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).
