Kaleb Alexander Hoosier v. Executive Centre Association, et al.
D. Hawai‘i · Oct 31, 2025
What happened in this matter?
The court dismissed the complaint with leave to amend, citing failure to state a claim and the inclusion of likely AI-hallucinated legal authorities. The court did not impose sanctions but issued a formal warning regarding the duty to verify sources and comply with local rules concerning AI-generated filings.
- Why the court cared
- Misrepresented: Legal Norm | Complaint cites "ROH § 14-1" in support of a "public easement sidewalk" proposition; court noted ROH § 14-1 actually concerns use of Polynesian plants and does not support the cited proposition. || Fabricated: Legal Norm | Complaint cites "ROH § 29-7.2" for the proposition that intentional confinement via trespass is unlawful; the court found no such section and observed ROH ch.29 pertains to affordable housing. || Fabricated: Case Law | "Blair v. City of Honolulu" cited in the complaint but does not appear to exist; court flagged it as likely fictitious.

Why this matter is tracked
In a pro se civil rights action, the District of Hawai‘i dismissed the plaintiff's complaint with leave to amend due to failure to state a claim. The court identified multiple instances of potentially hallucinated legal authority, including citations to nonexistent case law ('Blair v. City of Honolulu') and misrepresentations of Honolulu city ordinances (ROH § 14-1 and § 29-7.2). The court noted that these errors are increasingly associated with AI-generated content and reminded the plaintiff of the local requirement to declare reliance on unverified sources. The court emphasized that all litigants, including pro se parties, must ensure that cited authorities are accurate and support the propositions for which they are offered.
