What the record shows
The Oklahoma Supreme Court considered reciprocal discipline after the respondent admitted, in a federal show-cause response, that citations in two motions were generated by ChatGPT, which the federal court held were not accurate statements of law. Texas and Alabama authorities had already imposed public reprimands for the same conduct.
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.
