Attorney Sepideh Ardestani was sanctioned $1,500 over AI-hallucinated citations in a filing

Plaintiff's attorney Sepideh Ardestani filed a motion for reconsideration in Tercero v. Sacramento Logistics containing two nonexistent case citations, ten fabricated quotations, and twelve misattributed legal propositions. When confronted, Ardestani denied using AI and provided inconsistent explanations that the court found not credible. U.S. District Judge Dena Coggins imposed a $1,500 sanction and directed the clerk to refer the matter to the State Bar of California.
