Why this matter warrants attention
The Court identified that the pro se plaintiff cited a nonexistent case, 'FDIC v. Cordero-Hernandez, 202 F.3d 1,' which the Court clarified is actually United States v. Woodrum. The Court did not impose a sanction for this citation error, instead addressing the plaintiff's underlying legal argument on its merits.
Fabricated: Case Law | Plaintiff cited a non-existent case as authority; the Court identified the citation as nonexistent and observed the reporter page corresponds to United States v. Woodrum.
