Direct answer

What happened in this matter?

The adjudicator disregarded the recipient's case law citations after determining they were fabricated and irrelevant to the proceedings. The adjudicator noted that the citations appeared to be the product of AI-generated hallucinations, such as those produced by ChatGPT, and therefore could not be considered in the review of the administrative penalty.

Why this matter is tracked

In a review of a Notice of Administrative Penalty (NAP) for impaired driving, the pro se recipient submitted written materials containing multiple case law citations. The adjudicator found that none of the cited cases existed or were relevant to the matter, noting that each citation corresponded to a different, unrelated case. The adjudicator observed that while it was unclear if the recipient used artificial intelligence, the citations were consistent with known instances of AI-generated hallucinations. Consequently, the adjudicator disregarded the fabricated authorities. The adjudicator ultimately confirmed the NAP, finding that the recipient failed to establish any grounds for cancellation and that the police conduct did not rise to the level of egregious unfairness.
