Ex parte A.I.F.-H. f/k/a A.I.F.
CA Alabama · Jurisdiction not recorded · Jun 26, 2026
Judge Bowden's dissent identifies that the mother's mandamus petition relied on multiple AI-generated hallucinations and misrepresentations of precedent: a fabricated case citation, a quoted passage attributed to a real Alabama case that cannot be found, and other misstatements of holdings. Bowden argued the petition should have been dismissed for failing to comply with Rule 21 and warned against the waste and unreliability caused by AI hallucinations; the majority did not impose sanctions and resolved the jurisdictional issues on the merits, granting mandamus in part.
