## When to use it

Use when a workers' compensation appeal is brought in the Queensland Industrial Relations Commission and Form 9 is the notice the list names. The lawyer checks the Act, the decision, and the time to appeal. Do not take the 21-day reinstatement appeal period from the unfair-dismissal page and apply it here.

## Used for these tasks

- [Draft submissions for the compensation commission or tribunal](https://ailawframework.com/practice/personal-injury-and-compensation/draft-submissions-for-the-compensation-commission-or-tribunal.md)
- [Prepare a CTP or workers compensation dispute submission from the scheme file](https://ailawframework.com/practice/personal-injury-and-compensation/prepare-a-ctp-or-workers-compensation-dispute-submission-from-the-scheme.md)
- [Prepare the tribunal or commission document bundle from the lawyer-selected material](https://ailawframework.com/practice/personal-injury-and-compensation/prepare-the-tribunal-or-commission-document-bundle-from-the-lawyer-selec.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 appeal is a workers' compensation appeal in the Commission, and Form 9 is the notice
- The current Form 9 is used
- The decision under appeal is identified
- The time to appeal is checked by the lawyer in the Act, not taken from the unfair-dismissal page
