- How AI is used
- List the facts in the brief against each Rule 23(a) prerequisite and against the Rule 23(b) type the lawyer has selected. Write no paragraph of the complaint.
- What the lawyer must review
- You write the complaint. By presenting it you certify, under Rule 11(b), that the claims and legal contentions are warranted by existing law or a nonfrivolous argument, and that the factual contentions have evidentiary support, after an inquiry reasonable in the circumstances. Rule 23(a) and the chosen branch of Rule 23(b) are the certification theory. Formal Opinion 512: you verify generated authorities before they are filed. Open any standing order on generative AI for the assigned judge.
