Fabricated: Case Law | Plaintiff cited "Cottman Transmission Sys., Inc. v. Metro. Pontiac GMC, Inc., 351 F. Supp. 2d 343, 347 (E.D. Pa. 2004)"; Court could not find such a case and noted the volume/citation actually refers to a different case. || Fabricated: Case Law | Plaintiff cited "McMahon v. RMS Electronics, Inc., 951 F. Supp. 923, 925 (S.D.N.Y. 1997)"; Court could not locate that decision and noted the cited reporter page corresponds to an unrelated case. || Misrepresented: Case Law | Plaintiff relied on Brown v. ITT Consumer Fin. Corp., 211 F.3d 1217, 1222 (11th Cir. 2000) for a proposition; Court found the case (or other cited real cases) do not stand for the asserted proposition (misattribution). || False Quotes: Legal Norm | Plaintiff quoted 9 U.S.C. § 5 inaccurately in her filings; Court identified the statutory quote as inaccurate.

Evans v. Robertson (4)

U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan · Michigan · Jul 21, 2026

The Court found both Plaintiff's and Defendant's filings contained factitious citations and misrepresentations of precedent despite prior orders requiring verification; examples include a misstatement of Mitan v. Campbell and improper uses of Delay and Everett. The Court struck the objections and related filings, reiterated prior sanctions (imposed Nov. 20, 2025), and warned that further violations may incur additional sanctions. The Court ruled that even a single factitious citation violates its orders and justifies striking filings.
