    But for example in a case where the other party could get in jail for his false citation? I would not be accepting yeah you could have gone to jail for this fake citations but he gets just pat on his hands with some cash money.

      Maybe you’re right. If we’re trying to be thorough, I’d probably go as far as offering an incentive for firms to have a dedicated paralegal as an “AI reviewer”.

      In this case, the worst that could have happened if NOONE checked whether the cited cases were real and relevant AND the judge somehow decided that New York law stood above federal law and international treaties, would have been for an aviation company paying someone compensation for allegedly hurting a passenger and causing a bad knee.
