What the film shows
Checks every citation in a brief for existence, quotes and negative treatment, before filing
Agents find every citation, open each source at the cited page, compare every quote word for word, read each case's history and check the form. When a case does not exist, they show what the reporter page really holds and suggest the nearest real authority. The associate accepts or rejects each fix with a reason; the partner signs.
Transcript
- Cite Checking checks every citation in a brief for existence, quotes and treatment, before filing.
- Fake-citation rulings rose from fourteen in 2024 to 361 this year; Quentin's 187-citation brief is due at five.
- Checked in under seven minutes, page fourteen has a red margin note: no such case at this cite.
- One click shows what that page really holds, and Quentin swaps in a real case.
- Six misquotes are shown word by word and fixed from the source.
- A case reversed on the point cited is caught and replaced.
- Every fix is accepted, or rejected with a reason.
- The table of authorities is rebuilt from the citations.
- Nell signs at 4:12: nothing fabricated or overruled goes out under her name.
- Built on Botminds: agents, data, screens and governance on one platform.
