Judge wants lawyer fined $15K for using AI slop in filing

  It's certainly disrespectful of the process, and even of his client to do something like this. Presumably he didn't even read / validate any of what was cited?

  A long, long time ago, during my studies, I maintained and set up Novell networks, Windows NT, and a proprietary Linux (?) server with specialized law firm software designed for legal partnerships. What I learned from that experience: Lawyers, notaries, and debt collectors rely heavily on text templates. In a sense, you could say they’ve been conditioned for decades to adopt predefined text. And since this approach has worked so often, perhaps they’ve lost the habit of double-checking everything that a piece of software suggests to them.

  How many el-crapo lawyers have pulled that stunt now (and been caught)? Just take away the idiot's license to practice law. For life. According to the ABA, America has more than 1.3M lawyers.

  Rule 11 sanctions are supposed to hurt. This one needs to, as an example. It's not like it's hard to look up the cases you cite.
