What was hallucinated

Fabricated: Case Law | Multiple quotations in petitioner's motion to disqualify did not appear in the cited cases; Judge Huntsman identified four fake quotations and previously struck the filing. || False Quotes: Case Law | Objection contains an inaccurate/partial quotation attributed to the Rohan case; the quoted material is incomplete and not an accurate quotation from the case. || Misrepresented: Case Law | Petitioner cited 'Badillo v. Thorpe, 158 F. Supp. 2d 177 (D. Conn. 2001),' but that reporter citation corresponds to Tropical Air Flying Services, Inc. v. Carmen Feliciando de Melecio; the actual Badillo v. Thorpe decision is at 158 F. App'x 208 (11th Cir. 2005).

Chapter Kris Jackson v. BOK Financial Corporation et al. (3)

What happened

In N.D. Oklahoma, USA, a filing relied on an unnamed/unconfirmed AI tool to help draft legal argument. The court identified the following problems with the citations in that filing:

Fabricated (Case Law)

Multiple quotations in petitioner's motion to disqualify did not appear in the cited cases; Judge Huntsman identified four fake quotations and previously struck the filing.
False Quotes (Case Law)

Objection contains an inaccurate/partial quotation attributed to the Rohan case; the quoted material is incomplete and not an accurate quotation from the case.
Misrepresented (Case Law)

Petitioner cited 'Badillo v. Thorpe, 158 F. Supp. 2d 177 (D. Conn. 2001),' but that reporter citation corresponds to Tropical Air Flying Services, Inc. v. Carmen Feliciando de Melecio; the actual Badillo v. Thorpe decision is at 158 F. App'x 208 (11th Cir. 2005).

Which AI tool

an unnamed/unconfirmed AI tool. Note: Charlotin's public database records tool attribution only where a court order, brief, or reporting on the matter states it explicitly; "unidentified" or "implied" means the record indicates AI use but does not name a specific product — we do not guess.

Outcome

Struck filings; Monetary sanction (monetary penalty: 405 USD.)

How Citation Safe would have caught this

Citation Safe runs three deterministic layers before a brief is filed: (1) does the citation exist against CourtListener's database of published opinions, (2) if quoted, does that exact language appear in the source, (3) does the cited case actually support the proposition it is cited for. Fabricated case citations fail Layer 1. Fabricated or misattributed quotations fail Layer 2 even when the underlying case is real. Misrepresented holdings — a real case cited for a proposition it does not support — are the target of Layer 3. None of these checks involve asking another language model whether the citation looks right; they are lookups and text-matches against the actual source, which is why a hallucinated citation has to survive a direct lookup against the authoritative source — not another model's opinion — to earn a VERIFIED stamp; our measured false-verify rate is published live at /quality.
