Pickleball Club, LLC, 418 So. 3d 826, 827 (Fla. 3d DCA 2025), reh'g denied (Sept. 11, 2025); and WHEREAS, the Supreme Court of Florida amended the Comments to rules 4-1.1, 4-1.6, 4-5.1, and 4-5.3 of the Rules Regulating the Florida Bar to add a warning about the necessity to take care in using generative artificial intelligence. In re Amendments to Rules Regulating the Florida Bar - Chapter 4, 393 So. 3d 137 (Fla. 2024) (SC2024-0032); and WHEREAS, self-represented litigants must adhere to the same procedural rules and applicable statutes as attorneys; and WHEREAS, all filings submitted to the Court must comply with the duty of candor to the tribunal, and the responsibility for accuracy rests solely with the filing party, regardless of the technology used; and WHEREAS, transparency regarding the use of AI promotes accountability, fairness, and public confidence in the judicial process.
regardless of the technology used; and WHEREAS, transparency regarding the use of AI promotes accountability, fairness, and public confidence in the judicial process. 2 NOW, THEREFORE, pursuant to the authority vested in me as Chief Judge of the Eleventh Judicial Circuit of Florida, under Rule 2.215 of the Florida Rules of General Practice and Judicial Administration, it is hereby ORDERED: 1. APPLICABILITY This Administrative Order applies to attorneys and self-represented litigants appearing before the Circuit and County Courts of the Eleventh Judicial Circuit. 2. MANDATORY DISCLOSURE OF AI USE Any attorney or self-represented litigant who uses any generative artificial intelligence tool in the preparation of a pleading, motion, memorandum, response, proposed order, or other court record, must disclose such use on the face of the filing. 3. REQUIRED CERTIFICATION The filing shall include a statement substantially in the following form: "Generative artificial intelligence was used in the preparation of this filing. The undersigned certifies that all factual assertions, legal authority, and citations have been independently reviewed and verified for accuracy and accepts full responsibility for the contents of this filing." This certification may be included at the conclusion of the filing or immediately above the signature block. 4. DUTY OF CANDOR AND RESPONSIBILITY The use of generative artificial intelligence does not relieve any attorney or self-represented litigant of the duty of candor to the tribunal; the obligation to independently verify all factual assertions and legal authority; or compliance with applicable statutes, procedural rules, and the Rules Regulating the Florida Bar. All AI-generated content shall be deemed the work product of the filing party
