Yuri Petrini v. City of Biloxi, Mississippi, et al.
U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi · Mississippi · Jun 30, 2026
The City Employees alerted the Court that Petrini's response relied on AI which 'hallucinated' a case holding and altered facts from Petrini's earlier Case No. 178—specifically attributing a roof stop-work order and related holding to Case No. 178 when that order contains no such material. The Court accepted this observation, reiterated warnings about AI-generated 'legal fiction' (citing Ferris and Fletcher), admonished the pro se plaintiff and reminded litigants of duties of candor and Rule 11, but imposed no sanctions based on the record.

U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi · Mississippi · Dec 30, 2025
The plaintiff's sworn declaration contained multiple fabricated quotations and manufactured deposition citations. Defendants identified the fabrications in a motion to strike; the court found the declaration filed in bad faith, struck it, and imposed sanctions under Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(h). The plaintiff admitted using generative AI to draft portions and failing to review the declaration; counsel failed to verify the citations despite attending and taking the depositions.
