What the record shows
The court found that plaintiff's counsel used ChatGPT to generate eleven statements describing plaintiff's former job that the court determined were nonexistent, placed them in a declaration sworn under penalty of perjury, and referenced them in the summary judgment response, violating Local Civil Rule 7.2 by not disclosing the AI use. The court sanctioned counsel by ordering payment of the defendant's related fees and costs (amount to be set by conferral) and two hours of CLE, denied the motion to strike, and granted leave to file an amended response omitting the AI-generated material.

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.
