US Lawyer Penalized by Utah Court for Citing Fake Cases Generated by ChatGPT

The Utah Court of Appeals imposed sanctions on lawyer Richard Bednar for citing a fake case generated by ChatGPT in an appeal filing. Bednar admitted to negligence in verifying the content and argued that it was drafted by an unlicensed legal assistant who has now been fired. The court ruled that he violated his professional duties as a lawyer and ordered him to pay the opposing party's attorney fees, refund relevant fees to the client, and donate $1,000 to a legal public welfare organization.
