Why this matter warrants attention
The court sanctioned the pro se plaintiff for frivolous conduct under 22 NYCRR 130-1.1 after he submitted motion papers containing fabricated case law and nonexistent quotations. The court ordered the plaintiff to pay the defendant's reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, dismissed the plaintiff's claims, and imposed a filing restriction designating the plaintiff as a vexatious litigant.
False Quotes: Case Law | Plaintiff attributed seven quotations to cases that do not contain those quotations; the court found these to be fabricated or misattributed quotations relied on in his motion papers. || Fabricated: Case Law | Plaintiff cited “Loeb v Loeb, 84 AD2d 591 (2d Dept 1981)” and attributed a quotation to it; the court found 84 AD2d 591 corresponds to unrelated 3rd Dept decisions (Sanginario; First Depot) and the cited Loeb decision/quotation does not exist as represented. || Fabricated: Case Law | Plaintiff relied on a dozen purported authorities that the court and opposing counsel identified as nonexistent case citations listed in defense filings (NYSCEF Doc No. 102).
