STANDING ORDER REQUIRING CERTIFICATION RE: USE OF ARTIFICIAL
INTELLIGENCE (AI) IN FILINGS
In addition to a Certification of Conferral, in cases before this court in which the parties
have consented to magistrate judge jurisdiction, every motion filed pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P.
12, Fed. R. Civ. P. 56, or to amend a pleading, and any opposed motion (to include the
corresponding response and reply), shall contain a Certification regarding the use, or non-use, of
generative artificial intelligence (AI) (such as ChatGPT, Harvey.AI, Google Bard, etc.) in
preparing the filing, including any proposed amended pleadings.
The preparer of the filing must certify either that (a) no portion of the filing was drafted
by AI, or that (b) any language drafted by AI (even if later edited by a human being) was
personally reviewed by the filer or another human being for accuracy using print reporters or
traditional legal databases and attesting that the legal citations are to actual existing cases or cited
authority. The court will strike any filing from a party who fails to include this certification in the
above-mentioned motions.
In cases in which this court is in the referral role, this order applies only to
nondispositive, opposed motions that are referred to this court.
