AI-related case
Holmes v. Cape Meadows Apartments HRMS
The court determined Plaintiff's emergency motion for a temporary restraining order was apparently drafted using generative AI and contained bracketed placeholders and a fabricated case citation ("Corrigan v. City of Scottsdale, 720 F.3d 513, 520 (9th Cir. 2013)"). The court noted this raised Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11 concerns but, for judicial efficiency, addressed the motion on the merits, denied the TRO, and dismissed the complaint under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B). No professional sanctions or monetary penalties were imposed related to the fabricated citation.
