What the record shows

The court found that plaintiffs' counsel relied on unverified generative-AI research producing citations that do not exist as written, and that counsel alerted opposing counsel but not the court and did not withdraw the brief. The court fashioned a deterrence-focused sanction; old data indicates a public reprimand with client notice and bar self-referral.

This entry reflects the court document as filed. The citations at issue could not be located in the reporters named at the time of the order. The reading here is descriptive of the public record and is not legal advice.

The test this filing did not run

Every matter in this record shares one mechanism: a citation that did not resolve to an opinion in the reporter named, in a brief that was filed before any verification step ran. Veritas runs that step. The Filing Risk Scanner extracts each citation, resolves it against reporter and public-record sources, and returns a verdict on each one — located, partial, or not located in reporter — before the brief is signed.
