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
- Must not write the facts and contentions in words that will be filed
The lawyer checks
- The statement is the respondent's, in the workers' compensation appeal
- The current Form 9C is used
- The bundle is the material the lawyer has selected
- The facts are settled by the lawyer
