November 3, 2025 Filing 11 NOTICE OF INSUFFICIENCY. The plaintiff has filed a motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis; in other words, she seeks to commence a federal lawsuit without pre-paying the filing fee. A federal law, 28 U.S.C. 1915, permits her to do so if, among other things, she submits a financial affidavit showing that she is unable to pay, accompanied by a certified copy of her inmate trust account statement for the six month period preceding her complaint. To assist inmates in demonstrating inability to pay, the District of Connecticut has prepared a standard-form in forma pauperis application. In this case, the plaintiff submitted the wrong in forma pauperis application form. She also did not submit a certified copy of her inmate trust account statement for the last six months. Her application is therefore insufficient. The Clerk of the Court is respectfully directed to send the plaintiff a blank copy of the correct application form at her address of record. The plaintiff is directed to fill out the form completely and accurately, and to file it with the Clerk of the Court along with a certified copy of her inmate trust account statement covering at least the period from March 24, 2025 to September 24, 2025. If she does not do so by November 24, 2025, her case may be dismissed. Signed by Judge Thomas O. Farrish on 11/3/25.(Pesta, J.)

September 24, 2025 Filing 8 Notice to Counsel and Litigants Regarding AI-Assisted Research: Attorneys and pro se litigants alike should exercise great caution in submitting any AI-generated language in filings before the Court. Use of AI without verification of the accuracy of the information it generates like any other shoddy research method from other sources or tools implicates Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11, the central purpose of which is to deter baseless filings in district court and thus to streamline the administration and procedure of the federal courts. Rule 11 applies fully to actions filed by pro se litigants.Therefore, all parties are on notice that the Court has a no-tolerance policy for any briefing (AI-assisted or not) that hallucinates legal propositions or otherwise severely misstates the law. Such filings will often result in sanctions absent reasonable excuse. See generally Willis v. U.S. Bank Nat'l Ass'n et al, No. 3:25-CV-516-BN, 2025 WL 1408897 (N.D. Tex. May 15, 2025).
