Ilan Harush v. Roee Alfasi

Magistrate's Court, Rehovot · Sep 28, 2025

Direct answer

What happened in this matter?

The court denied the plaintiff's motion to transfer the case to ordinary procedure. Regarding the AI-generated citations, the court declined to award costs to either party, effectively offsetting the defendant's potential entitlement to costs against the plaintiff's misconduct with the fabricated AI-generated case law.

Why the court cared
The court reasoned that the plaintiff's motion to transfer was an attempt to circumvent a prior judicial decision. Regarding costs, the court balanced the plaintiff's procedural failure against the defendant's submission of AI-generated fabricated case law, concluding that each party should bear their own costs.
Why it matters now
Israeli courts now disallow costs entirely when fabricated AI cites are in the record; fees are the first line of defense.

Why this matter is tracked

In Ilan Harush v. Roee Alfasi, the Rehovot Magistrate Court addressed a motion to transfer a fast-track monetary dispute to ordinary procedure. The plaintiff sought the transfer to facilitate discovery regarding website server details. The defendant opposed the motion, noting that the plaintiff had previously submitted fabricated case law generated by AI. The court denied the motion to transfer, citing procedural efficiency and the plaintiff's failure to seek appropriate remedies earlier. Regarding the AI-generated citations, the court observed that while the defendant's motion would typically warrant a costs order against the plaintiff, the defendant's own reliance on AI-fabricated precedents justified a mutual waiver of costs. Consequently, the court ordered each party to bear its own legal expenses.

Operational lesson

Israeli courts now disallow costs entirely when fabricated AI cites are in the record; fees are the first line of defense.
