Before you begin
- Access to the affected work and the changed fact or document.
- The work must have recorded the dependency for BRON to identify it.
What to do
- Open the flagged work and read the notice before editing. Establish whether the change concerns a fact supplied to the drafting run or a newer version of a source document. Those events have different coverage and timing.
- Inspect the prior and current wording of the fact, or the relevant document versions. Read the source behind the correction and the recorded attorney decision where one is available. A flag is a request to review the work; it is not a finding that the draft is wrong.
- Review the draft against the changed fact. The editor's fact-change check is recorded for the drafting run, not each individual section. Read other passages that may depend on the same assumption, even if only one section drew your attention.
- Decide whether a revision is needed and record the review through the available workflow. BRON does not rewrite the draft when a fact changes. If you revise it, save a new version and route that version through the approval process that applies to the document.
- If you expected a flag and do not see one, check the dependency and timing. Document-version review runs daily and may take up to a day. Older work without recorded sources cannot be traced by this check. Review known affected work directly rather than waiting for a flag.
What you should see
The attorney has inspected the change and decided whether to revise the work. Any new draft is identifiable as a new saved version with its own review needs.
Limits and unresolved problems
Accepted fact corrections flag work that cited the fact. New document versions flag recorded dependencies in pending approvals, client updates and research memos; they do not flag finished drafts merely because a cited document changed.
