Court rules on AI in filings

Superior Court of Fulton County, Georgia.

Judge Craig L. Schwall, Sr.. Standing Order Regarding Use of AI and Certification of Citations.

In force when read In force when read on 26 September 2026.

  • Say that generative AI was used
  • Name the AI tool
  • Certify that it was checked

The court’s words

“Any attorney or pro se litigant who uses AI in any capacity to prepare, draft, or review a filing shall disclose such use in the document with the following certification: … The above certification must appear at the end of the document, before the signature block.”

Quoted from the court’s own document, read on 26 September 2026. Read it at the source.

This order covers AI used in any capacity to prepare, draft, or review a filing. Loupe does not write or change your document: it reads it, matches each citation against published court records, and reports what it found. Whether using it to review has to be disclosed under this order is for you to judge.

What it asks of the person who signs

  • Say that generative AI was used

    or, where the order asks it, that it was not.

  • Name the AI tool

    the order wants the tool identified.

  • Certify that it was checked

    in the filing: that the content and the citations were verified.

Applies to: All briefs, proposed orders and other submissions prepared, drafted or reviewed with AI in any capacity. Where it goes: At the end of the document, before the signature block.

The statement, if one is called for

The order asks for words of its own. With the blanks filled in from your answers, they read:

This document was generated with the assistance of [name the AI tool].

I hereby certify under penalty of perjury that, despite reliance on an AI tool, I have independently reviewed this document to confirm accuracy, legitimacy, and use of good and applicable law.

I hereby certify under penalty of perjury that every citation to law, case, statute, or the record in this document has been verified as accurate and that it exists as cited and for the proposition cited.

On the check page Loupe drafts the statement for this court from the parts you tick, for you to read and sign: what it says is your choice and your responsibility. The order in force on the day is what counts; read it at the source before relying on this page.

Check the filing first

Paste the brief or drop the file, and Loupe looks up every citation in the published record: whether the case exists, whether it is the case the filing names, whether the pin cite falls inside the opinion; statutes, regulations, court rules and links too. It doesn’t generate anything, and what it can’t settle it marks “not verified”, never clean.
