Dubawa

They are not uniform nationwide: orders differ in covered filing types, required disclosures, certifications, and exceptions. Always check the current order for the assigned case.

Zurfafa nutsewa

A standing order is a court or judge’s directive that applies within its stated scope. Generative-AI orders vary. Some require disclosure whenever AI assisted a filing, identification of the tool and sections, or a certification that a human verified sources and accuracy. Others emphasize existing Rule 11 duties without requiring a disclosure for every use. The relevant terms depend on the court, judge, case, filing type, and current order. For example, a Southern District of Ohio judge’s October 2025 order requires a separate declaration when generative AI helps prepare a pleading, motion, brief, or other court document, identifying the assisted portions and tool and certifying review. A July 2026 Eastern District of Texas standing order requires a certificate for AI-assisted pleadings and certifies accuracy and confidentiality conditions. These are examples from particular courts, not rules for every federal court or state tribunal. Before filing, check the assigned judge’s website and docket for current standing orders, local rules, amendments, and case-specific orders. Note whether the requirement covers generative AI only or other AI, whether editing AI text still counts, where and how to disclose, who signs, what must be certified, and any exceptions. Keep the declaration accurate and avoid revealing privileged or confidential client information unnecessarily. Regardless of an AI disclosure rule, lawyers and pro se filers remain responsible for filing content under applicable procedural rules.

The Future of Court Standing Orders on Generative AI Disclosure

Courts continue to refine AI filing procedures as new tools and risks emerge. A national rule may differ from local or judge-specific requirements. Firms can maintain an order library, but the filer should confirm the operative order for the assigned case and filing date. Courts may amend or replace standing orders, and local rules may treat disclosure differently. A template library can help, but it should point filers to the current docket and judge-specific procedures. Existing verification duties continue even where no AI disclosure is required.

A lawyer uses generative AI to draft part of a brief. What should the filing team check first?

Disclosure requirements depend on the court, judge, case, and covered filing.

A judge’s order requires a declaration identifying AI-assisted portions and the tool used. What should the filer do?

The order controls what the declaration must identify and certify.

Standing orders are limited to their issuing court or stated scope, while ordinary duties remain.

An order requires disclosure of sections drafted with AI. Which declaration detail is most directly responsive?

Some orders specify both content locations and tools; editing does not necessarily remove the requirement.

Why should a filer review whether an order covers generative AI or other AI tools?

The operative order defines the technologies and documents within its scope.
