A judge ordered Mike Lindell’s lawyers to pay $3000 each in fines for using AI to create court documents. The documents contained mistakes, including errors when quoting cases and citations to non-existent cases.

Judge Nina Y. Wang of the U.S. District Court in Denver found 30 errors in the filings.

      Seriously, isn’t reading documents/cases a bare minimum for their exorbitant fees?
