- Why the court cared
- The Council determined that the submission of an altered translation of a transfer decision, which omitted the signatory's official function, was a misleading act. The court explicitly linked the creation of this document to the use of artificial intelligence and deemed the conduct sufficient to warrant a referral to the Bar.

Why this matter is tracked
In the case RvV X / IX, the Council for Alien Law Litigation (Raad voor Vreemdelingenbetwistingen) addressed a transfer decision under the Dublin Regulation. During proceedings, counsel for the applicant submitted a translated copy of a transfer decision (Annexe 26quater) that had been altered to omit the signatory's official function. The Council identified this document as having been produced with the assistance of artificial intelligence and characterized the submission as misleading to the tribunal. Consequently, the Council referred the matter to the Bar for disciplinary review. The court's decision focused on the applicant's transfer to Croatia, ultimately upholding the transfer while noting the procedural misconduct regarding the falsified exhibit.
