Judicial System & Ai Cause & Effect

shwiefels · December 9, 2025

District Attorneys, Judges, Prosecutor's, Defendants, Plaintiffs, Ai and how this affects the court system.

Articles around the nation. Post them here

Today, I came across, in my County of residence, Nevada County, CA, an article where a prosecutor used Ai to prepare a filing which resulted in inaccurate legal citations.

My reason for posting this, I question how this can potentially have legal repercussions for all of us on both sides of the isle, defendants, plaintiffs, judges, DA’s, etc If this starts to be the norm, can it have an effect on us using a platform like this. Can judges potentially hold it against us? Obviously if we make inaccurate legal citations it works against us regardless. This is good reason to make sure what we are filing is accurate. Read and reread any motions filed etc. Killdebt obviously works in a way to not allow the use of inaccurate legal citations. I found it does a great job in this department. Doesn’t mean not to check and confirm. But I thought it would be good to keep track of these stories around the country and to have a discussion around it.

    Here is part of the article & link;

    Nevada County District Attorney Jesse Wilson statement on AI use in legal filing

    The Nevada County District Attorney’s Office acknowledges that, in a recent matter, a prosecutor utilized artificial intelligence in preparing a filing, which resulted in inaccurate legal citations. Once discovered, the filing was immediately withdrawn. It is important to note that the filing was withdrawn prior to ligation on the legal issue.

    The issue was immediately addressed with the involved attorney as well as all attorneys in the Office. All attorneys were reminded of their duty to independently verify every citation and authority and never rely on AI-generated material without verifying the accuracy of the information through authorized legal research platforms.

    As prosecutors and public servants, we take seriously our ethical obligations of candor to the Court and accuracy in all pleadings. Regardless of the source of any citation error—whether arising from the use of artificial intelligence or traditional human error—our Office remains firmly committed to the highest standards of integrity. Opposing counsel has identified errors in legal citations in two other filings, which have been promptly corrected and addressed with the same level of seriousness in our internal review and attorney guidance. The errors in these cases were also addressed and corrected prior to any final resolution.

    Great topic. Great reading and very important to keep an eye as the borders to everything starts to blur or disappear with this giant Tsunami is quickly heading our way. Make sure you are behind it in every facet of life. Keep educating yourself. I highly recommend the recent podcasts last week on this on Diary of a CEO.

    Here’s a new one. ChatGPT is getting sued.

    A company that says it was hit with a legal action by someone getting legal help from ChatGPT is suing ChatGPT's creator practicing law without a license.

    The Georgia Supreme Court found AI hallucinated cases in the filings of a state attorney as well as an opinion and order from a lower court - meaning a whole lot of people missed them.

    While this case focuses on a murder trial, it relates to some information discussed, like making sure to check case law to identify that it relates to your case.

    This is where ParkerGPT does a better job than any other AI and does the homework for you and checks your states case law to make sure it’s not making up case law

    Despite well-publicized cases of lawyers being punished, lawyers continue filing pleadings with courts that are filled with AI-hallucinations.

    Do you think this is deliberately done to take away the layperson's option to use AI for legal defense or legal matters? because even though at times it could be inaccurate, it could also help us greatly. If I didn't have AI, I wouldn't know how to structure the Motion to ask for Amendment to my Answer which was granted by the way. I was really proud of how good I did on it. Actually, I took from 3 AIs to help me.
    It's sad we live in an age where we don't know what is legitimate info.

    A friend who has done this on his own in the past told me, he heard of a guy having used AI for his case, and the AI gave him a case that didn't exist, so he lost the case. That made my hairs stand up. So I do double-check cases cited as best I can.
