Why this matter is tracked

In a civil rights action, the pro se plaintiff submitted objections to a magistrate judge's report and recommendation for summary judgment. The court noted that the plaintiff's objections relied on fabricated case law, specifically citing purported quotations from Sims v. Metro. Dade Cnty. and Shaw v. City of Selma that do not exist in the actual opinions. The court observed that the plaintiff used these hallucinated quotes to argue against the application of the summary judgment standard regarding video evidence. The district court accepted the magistrate's report, granted the defendants' motion for summary judgment, and dismissed the plaintiff's claims, noting that the plaintiff's reliance on non-existent case law was meritless.
