Managing attorney review queues prioritize emergency items first, then sort by funder-restriction and conflict flags, followed by due timing and submitter. This urgency-aware ordering ensures compliance-sensitive and time-critical documents surface immediately for supervision.

No, approval is blocked when conflict flags are unresolved. The review workflow enforces compliance guardrails by preventing approval of court-bound documents until managing attorneys explicitly resolve conflict and funder-restriction flags.

To return a staff draft, select the return action and provide a required note explaining the revision needs. This action is recorded in the history log and propagates the return state back into the originating matter's case file.

After managing attorney approval, the workflow releases the document to the staffer outbox and propagates the approval state, flag acknowledgements, and conflict blocking decisions back into the originating matter's case file records.

Legal aid supervision review requires a mode detection setting from the office configuration file to enable formal review gating. Without this configuration, the queue triage and approval actions are not activated for managing attorneys.
