Used for these tasks

- Reconcile payroll evidence before calculating backpay
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 the draft against the current official form and list what is missing; the lawyer settles every statement that will be filed and signs or lodges the form.
AI may
- Check the draft is the current version of the form and list every blank field or missing attachment
- Index the documents on the file that the form calls for, with date and author
- Turn the court's published filing and service steps into a checklist for this matter
AI must not
- Must not write allegations, grounds, orders or figures in words that will be filed
- Must not decide jurisdiction, standing or whether a time limit has been met
- Must not sign, lodge or serve the form
The lawyer checks
- The claim is for unpaid wages, superannuation contributions or a related amount the form covers
- The employment is in the state system the lawyer has checked
- The current Form 15 is used
- Figures come from payroll records the lawyer has reconciled
