for planning purposes
Explanation:
IMO, or for projection/prediction purposes, but more context would be required to decide between the two. I think planning covers all bases.

to write preliminary drafts of decisions and judgments


Explanation:
I'd have to go with an explicative translation here as, presumably, this relates to the work of a "proyectista," who in the Mexican court system is a type of judicial clerk tasked with "preparing a preliminary draft of a judgment or court opinion to be reviewed and approved or changed by the court" (J.F. Becerra, Dictionary of Mexican Legal Terminology, 2nd ed., p. 989).

Here's a job description of a "proyectista" from Tlaxcala's Consejo de la Judicatura:

"CÉDULA DE DESCRIPCIÓN DE PUESTO
PROYECTISTA DE JUZGADO
1. DATOS DE CONTROL
1.1 Nombre del Puesto  Proyectista de Juzgado
1.2 Clasificación del Puesto  Personal de auxilio directo al Juez
1.3 Tipo  Carrera Judicial
1.4 Rama  Jurisdiccional
1.5 Área  Proyección
1.6 Jornada Semanal  35 a 40 horas
1.7 Puesto al que reporta  Juez
1.8 Objetivo general del Puesto
 Desarrollar y aplicar los conocimientos de Derecho para la impartición de justicia en materia civil, penal (con excepción de los asuntos competencia de los Jueces del Sistema de Justicia Penal Acusatorio Oral), familiar y mercantil, a través de la elaboración de proyectos de sentencias y demás resoluciones presentes en el proceso de primera instancia."

Another possible translation might be "to write draft judgments and legal memoranda".

agree  Helena Chavarria: I've learnt something new!

  -> Thanks, Helena. The connection with "proyecto de sentencia" wasn't apparent to me either at first glance, but "con fines de proyección" just hanging there looked suspiciously like jargon to me. Hope you're keeping well over there!

Reference information:
El secretario proyectista se encarga de analizar los asuntos que le turnan, definir las características del asunto y los temas que involucra, encontrar información adicional relacionada con cada caso y proponer soluciones a los mismos.

.....................

El secretario proyectista es responsable de organizar el trabajo de los oficiales judiciales que tiene a su cargo.

.....................

El secretario proyectista debe conocer la manera en la que se elabora un proyecto de sentencia. Debe saber cómo analizar un expediente y encontrar cuáles son los temas que se encuentran a debate. Los proyectistas deben ser buenos investigadores, tener un buen manejo de la jurisprudencia y localizar con facilidad las tesis que requieren. También, es necesario que puedan ubicar con facilidad las respuestas a sus preguntas en la legislación y en la doctrina. En muchos casos, la función del proyectista se identifica con la habilidad para encontrar antecedentes. De esta manera, la labor no requiere necesariamente de la elaboración de propuestas de resolución sino de la adaptación de propuestas.
