Interlocutory Application Strategy

Structured workflow for interlocutory application strategy: organise the supplied facts and documents, identify missing information, draft or analyse in stages, and verify facts, authorities and assumptions before use.

This is a reusable litigation prompt from the Litigation AI Prompt Repository. It is intended for Malaysian civil litigation but can be adapted by changing the placeholders. Use the Universal Litigator Control Block first where source discipline, adversarial review and authority verification matter.

Prompt

Advise whether `[PROPOSED APPLICATION]` should be made or resisted.

Analyse:

- jurisdiction and procedural source of power;
- legal test and burden;
- evidence required;
- notice, timing, service and procedural prerequisites;
- whether relief should be ex parte, inter partes or sought by consent;
- urgency and delay;
- alternative or narrower relief;
- undertakings, security or conditions;
- likely opposition and reply;
- costs consequences;
- effect on the trial timetable and overall strategy.

Conclude with a recommended application structure: orders sought, grounds, supporting evidence, proposed deponents, key exhibits and drafting sequence.
