AI LAWFRAMEWORK

Provisional answer

Caution: check these rules first

This is general information drawn from published catalogue guidance and stored court notes. It is not legal advice, and it is not a decision that you may use the tool.

Check an expert report’s assumptions and AI disclosure requires close supervision. The lawyer checks the complete work to be relied on, resolves uncertainties and approves its use.

The matched instrument is Practice Note SC Gen 25, The use of Artificial Intelligence by Court users (Supreme Court of Victoria).

This note also sets rules for other documents. Open it before you rely on a different document.

    Court note
