10.0
On February 27, 2026, the Supreme Court of India said a trial court's reliance on AI-generated, non-existent judgments amounts to misconduct and issued notices to Attorney General R. Venkataramani, Solicitor General Tushar Mehta and the Bar Council of India. The Bench appointed senior advocate Shyam Divan to assist, stayed further use of the advocate-commissioner's report, and listed the matter for hearing on March 10, 2026.
