USE OF GENERATIVE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (“AI”) IN COURT FILINGS
A. Certification Re: Use of Generative Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) for Drafting
1. Every filing shall contain an AI Certification regarding the use, or non-use,
of generative AI (such as ChatGPT, Harvey.AI, or Google Gemini) in preparing
the filing, signed by all individuals who contributed to the drafting of the filing.
To the extent that generative AI was used in any drafting of the filing, each
individual must certify that any language drafted by AI (even if later edited by a
human) was personally reviewed by the filer or another human for accuracy
and that all legal citations reference actual non-fictitious cases or cited
authority. The AI Certification does not count against any page limitations. All
filings remain subject to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11, 28 U.S.C. § 1927,
and applicable ethical rules.
Examples of acceptable AI Certifications are provided below for illustrative
purposes only:
The undersigned counsel certifies/certify that generative artificial
intelligence was not used to draft this filing.
or
The undersigned counsel certifies/certify that generative artificial
intelligence—specifically, ChatGPT—was used to draft this filing. I/we
further certify that [Party] was/were advised of and consented to such use.
All cited authority was manually reviewed by counsel of record.
2. Filings that do not comply with the AI Certification requirement may be
stricken without substantive consideration and with leave to re-file a compliant
document.
