## When to use it

Use when the probate rules require a notice in support of a caveat. The caveat itself is Form 116. The forms list does not state the time for the notice. The lawyer checks the rules.

## Used for these tasks

## 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:**

- A caveat is on foot, and the document is the notice in support
- The current Form 118 is downloaded from the forms list
- The lawyer settles what the notice must contain
- The notice is not used as the caveat
