What the record shows

The court noted counsel verified his independent legal research and characterized a single misstatement in the brief as his own human editing error. The court stated it was profoundly troubled by the legal profession's growing reliance on AI to draft briefs, which often results in citations to incorrect or nonexistent cases, but imposed no sanction.

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.
