In Cork and another v Smith [2026] EWHC 1199 (Ch), the court publicly admonished a law firm and two of its supervising solicitors after two letters which contained misleading AI-generated material, including hallucinated statutory text, were submitted to the court in connection with an insolvency application. Having applied the guidance in R (Ayinde) v Haringey LBC [2025] EWHC 1383 (Admin), the judge concluded that public admonishment in his judgment, together with the firm’s self-referral to the SRA, was an appropriate response.
