Fabricated: Case Law | Court found pervasive fabricated citations in Progressive's Motion to Reconsider after comparing cited authorities to the arguments. Outcome: Public Reprimand; Revocation of pro hac vice privileges; Order to Serve Order on Clients; Diffusion of Order to Counsel's Bars. Show Cause Order here. Law firm explained what happened here.In the ultimate order, the court noted that "In terms of competence, the threat to attorneys using generative artificial intelligence platforms powered by large language models is two-fold. First, danger exists that the attorney does not understand how the technology functions, believing that the output is real instead of “realistic-looking."."In finding that the law firm acted with integrity, the Court noted with approval that it had repaid the other side's fees, to the tune of 55,721.2 USD.
