## Used for these tasks

- [Build the estate administration ledger: creditors, assets and distributions](https://ailawframework.com/practice/wills-estates-probate-and-succession/build-the-estate-administration-ledger-creditors-assets-and-distribution.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 filer is an interested party, and the request is that the Registrar ask the executor or administrator to file an account
- The current form is used
- The estate and the personal representative are identified from the Probate Office record
- The request is not filed as if it were the account
