## Resource

A Canadian lawyer just became the first in Ontario to lose her license for abusing AI in court filings — a bold move by the legal system that signals serious consequences for AI misuse. When a judge questioned her cited cases, she couldn’t produce them, and upon investigation, many were fabricated, irrelevant, or even contradicted her arguments. When asked if AI was involved, she deflected, saying she’d check with her clerk — a response that missed the point: lawyers are responsible for verifying everything they submit. The judge emphasized that basic professional duty includes ensuring facts are accurate, not just relying on AI. Now, civil contempt proceedings loom, and she’s been forced to accept an independent lawyer while her case unfolds — a landmark moment showing the legal world is cracking down on AI abuse.
