Court Filing Includes AI-Generated Motion Language

In State v. Stroup, a defendant's filing recently included apparent generative-AI–produced motion language and template text, prompting the prosecutor to move to strike under local rule 3(G) requiring disclosure. Missoulian reporter Griffen Smith published the filing showing paste-ready templates, S3 upload links, and duplicated captions, while Office of Public Defender administrator Brian Smith said the AI language was inadvertently included.
