## When to use it

Use when a person seeks court review of a police protection direction. The Court's hub says that if you disagree with a police protection direction that has been issued, you may seek a review. This is not the DV01 protection-order application.

## Used for these tasks

- [Prepare the protection order application pack](https://ailawframework.com/practice/family-violence-and-protection-orders/prepare-the-protection-order-application-pack.md)
- [Build the order, service and expiry register](https://ailawframework.com/practice/family-violence-and-protection-orders/build-the-order-service-and-expiry-register.md)

## 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 document under review is a police protection direction, and DV59A is the form the index names
- The current version 1 file is used
- The review is recorded against the direction, including service and any expiry the papers show
- The lawyer checks who may apply and the time for review
