Surely some federal rules of criminal procedure equivalent.

TIL: there is no Rule 11 equivalent in the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure. Interesting discussion at United States v. Aleo, 681 F.3d 290, 308-09 (6th Cir. 2012) (perish the thought that a prosecutor could get sanctioned for filing a frivolous pleading that would get a civil litigator Rule 11'ed).
