I recently filed a lawsuit in federal court, but because of the nature of the suit (adversarial proceeding on a bankruptcy case, wanting to cut my losses knowing collection is going to be the problem) I decided to do it Pro Se.

I've used a lot of AI to do this, with a lot of research of my own, reading documents from similar cases, verifying citations, etc. So far, things are going well, I've won on all the motions so far. But I'm using critical thinking and carefully reviewing everything.

The real failure with slop filings is procedural, not technological. A competent attorney should never submit a brief built on case law they hadn’t verified. Legal practice has always relied on reading the sources, confirming relevance, and taking responsibility for interpretation.
