Information about court rules, not legal advice. Rules change; read the order itself before you file.
Professional-conduct commentary says AI use does not diminish lawyers' duties and flags rules it implicates (incl. 3.1, 3.3); there is no filing-specific verification or disclosure rule.
“Technology, including artificial intelligence and similar innovations, plays an increasing role in the practice of law, but that role does not diminish a lawyer's responsibilities under these Rules.”
This is commentary to the Rules of Professional Conduct, not a court-filing rule. The Civil Rules Committee's September 25, 2026 agenda records an informal request about a pleading-verification rule; no proposed text has been published. Several D.

Individual courts or judges in Colorado may have their own orders.

Rules change, and individual judges and courts may have their own orders. Check the court's site and your judge's standing orders before you file.
Verify before you file. Start with one citation.
HallucinX checks that each cited case exists and that quoted text appears in the opinion. The duty to verify stays with you; this makes it faster.
