Why this matter warrants attention
The Social Security Tribunal of Canada dismissed the appellant's claim for retroactive disability benefits, ruling that the appellant failed to meet the legal test for incapacity. The Tribunal explicitly identified that the appellant relied on non-existent case law, which it attributed to the use of an artificial intelligence agent.
Fabricated: Case Law | Appellant cited Gattellaro v. Canada (AG), 2005 FCA 83; Tribunal found the case does not exist and treated it as a fabricated authority. || Fabricated: Case Law | Appellant cited Canada (AGC) v. Thouin, 2016 FC 1051; Tribunal found the case does not exist and treated it as a fabricated authority.
Pro-se fabricated-authority rulings abroad strengthen our argument that verification duties are universal.
