- False Quotes: Case Law | The filing attributed the quotation that there was no standing for wasted time and annoyance from a fax to Mauthe. The Court found that Mauthe contained no such quotation and did not address Article III standing.
- Fabricated: Case Law | The cited Wilson decision and Westlaw number could not be identified. The Court found that 2022 WL 17152188 did not correspond to an existing case supporting the asserted standing proposition.
- Misrepresented: Case Law | The cited Smith decision was misrepresented. The Westlaw number referred to a different case, and the actual Smith v. Vision Solar decision identified by the Court did not hold that two calls were facially insufficient to establish concrete harm.
- False Quotes: Case Law | The filing attributed to Foman the quotation that the pleading philosophy of the Rules affords a party an opportunity to test a claim on the merits. The Court found that this quotation was entirely absent from Foman.
- Fabricated: Case Law | The filing attributed the one-call intrusion-upon-seclusion proposition to Samuel v. U.S. Bank, but the cited Westlaw number did not correspond to an existing case and no matching Eastern District of Pennsylvania case could be identified.
- Misrepresented: Case Law | The filing stated that Gadelhak found multiple unwanted texts insufficient to constitute intrusion-type harm. The Court found that Gadelhak held the opposite: unwanted text messages can constitute a concrete injury in fact.
- False Quotes: Case Law | The filing presented an altered version of language from Foman as a quotation. The Court explained that Foman instead stated that a plaintiff should be afforded an opportunity to test a claim on the merits if the underlying facts or circumstances may be a proper subject of relief.
- Misrepresented: Case Law | The filing described Foman as a Third Circuit decision, but the Court noted that it is a decision of the United States Supreme Court.
