## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Insolvency, Restructuring & Bankruptcy](https://ailawframework.com/practice/insolvency-restructuring-and-bankruptcy.md) |
| Human involvement | Red: Lawyer writes; AI may check, clarify or collect data |
| How AI is used | Set each factual sentence in the lawyer’s draft beside the document that supports it, and list any sentence with no support in the file. Change no sentence. |
| What the lawyer must review | Bankruptcy Rule 9011(b): by presenting a petition, pleading, written motion, or other document, whether by signing, filing, submitting, or later advocating it, an attorney certifies the conditions of that subdivision to the best of the person’s knowledge, information, and belief formed after an inquiry reasonable under the circumstances. Rule 9011(a) requires the attorney’s signature on every petition, pleading, written motion, and other document except a list, schedule, or statement. Rule 9011(c)(2) requires a sanctions motion to be served under Rule 7004 and not filed if the challenged contention is withdrawn or corrected within 21 days, except a petition filed in violation of (b). Formal Opinion 512: the lawyer makes the inquiry. The tool does not leave text in the letter. |

## Checking plan

- What the AI does: Set each factual sentence in the lawyer’s draft beside the document that supports it, and list any sentence with no support in the file. Change no sentence.
- Basis: Checked against the linked sources on 22 October 2026. Confirm the current instrument before reliance.

## Notes

- Use Rule 9011 in the bankruptcy court. Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11 is the district-court rule.
- A standing order of a particular bankruptcy judge on generative tools was not opened. The lawyer reads the order for that court before filing.
