Attorney Loletha Hale was sanctioned for a brief with 17 AI-hallucinated case citations

In Boston et al. v. Williams et al. (N.D. Ga.), attorney Loletha Hale filed an opposition brief citing 24 cases, 17 of which were fabricated or inaccurate AI hallucinations that she failed to verify before filing. When confronted, Hale claimed she had her non-attorney daughter draft the brief, but the court found her explanation not credible and sanctioned her under Rule 11 on October 28, 2025. She was ordered to notify all existing clients of the court's findings and file the sanction order in all pending and future cases in the district for five years.
