Why this matter warrants attention
The court identified that the pro se plaintiff submitted briefs containing fabricated case citations. The plaintiff admitted to this conduct. Although the court dismissed the plaintiff's bad faith and IIED claims for failure to state a claim, it used the incident to admonish the plaintiff regarding the requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b) for all future filings.
Fabricated: Case Law | Plaintiff filed briefs containing multiple citations to nonexistent cases; the court and defendant identified these as fabricated case citations and the Magistrate Judge noted Plaintiff admitted filing them.
