Where this comes from
The official form is published by qcat.qld.gov.au; this page is a completion guide. Last checked on 2026-10-22.
When to use it
Use when the dispute is a complex dispute under that Act and it is not an adjustment of a lot entitlement schedule. Lot entitlement adjustments use Form 29. Manufactured homes and retirement villages are different forms and are not this one.
Used for these tasks
- Draft a scheme-dispute tribunal application from the papers
- Map each defect to its claim route and the last date to act
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 dispute is a complex dispute under the Body Corporate and Community Management Act 1997, and it is not a lot entitlement adjustment
- The current Form 28 is used
- The scheme and the orders sought are settled by the lawyer
- A defect's claim route and last date are checked by the lawyer before they are put on the form
Method: how the Green, Yellow and Red levels are decided. This is guidance for planning, not legal advice.
