Computer-Generated Legal Filings Get You Reported to the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA)
Some hours ago John Hyde reported that a large law firm was referred to the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA). To quote: "A judge has said his ruling should serve as ‘public admonishment’ of international firm Pinsent Masons and its senior lawyers after two botched uses of [slop]. ICC Judge Mullen concluded in Cork & Anor v Smith that the firm had misled the court twice: once by providing references which featured [slop] hallucinations, then a second time by using [slop] to produce an explanatory letter that was still wrong. Mullen said an unnamed junior lawyer (referred to as LA) seemed to have ‘almost entirely outsourced the thinking process’ to an [slop] program, while solicitor Samantha Poulton and partner Steven Cottee had failed to supervise her properly."
Only days ago we published: The Position of Courts on Computer-Generated Lawsuits and Filings From Another Continent (Made by Two Men Who Work for Slop Companies)
As we said two days ago, "if something is generally legal (or legally acceptable), that does not make it ethical."
We'll write a lot more about this in the future. Two Americans who work for Americans slop companies seem to think courts in another continent are "funny". █
