## When to use it

Use when a person applies to QCAT to review a decision and Form 23 is the review application. A licensing or disciplinary decision, and another reviewable decision, both need the lawyer to check that QCAT is the review body. Form 22 is the regulator's disciplinary referral.

## Used for these tasks

- [Prepare the application for tribunal review of a licensing or disciplinary decision](https://ailawframework.com/practice/professional-discipline-and-occupational-regulation/prepare-the-application-for-tribunal-review-of-a-licensing-or-disciplina.md)
- [Advise on a practising certificate or licence decision](https://ailawframework.com/practice/professional-discipline-and-occupational-regulation/advise-on-a-practising-certificate-or-licence-decision.md)
- [Draft a state, territorial or local tribunal application from the decision papers](https://ailawframework.com/practice/administrative-and-public-law/draft-a-state-territorial-or-local-tribunal-application-from-the-decisio.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 application is to review a decision, and Form 23 is the form
- The decision and the decision-maker are identified
- The lawyer has checked that the decision is reviewable in QCAT and the time limit
- The current Form 23 is used
