Risk Digest
The flagship, near-daily updated database of documented AI hallucination and sanction incidents in legal proceedings worldwide. Each entry is a structured record, not a news article: jurisdiction, court, judge (if named), the AI tool implicated, penalty amount, ruling date, a confirmed-vs-reported status flag, and a link to the primary court order. Serves the 'check risk' and 'track regulation' tasks: a lawyer, risk manager, or journalist scanning for new sanctions, a specific jurisdiction, or a specific tool. Excludes narrative commentary, procedural how-to guidance (belongs in Workflows), and rule text summaries (belongs in Regulation). This group is the site's differentiation engine: freshness and per-record sourcing are the moat, so every record must carry a last-verified timestamp distinct from the ruling date.
Confirmed
A court order or docket entry has been independently verified.
Reported — unverified
Still pending independent verification against a primary source.

Three July 2026 rulings in the Lindsay Clancy trial — on late expert disclosure, cumulative first-responder testimony, and graphic-evidence distribution — give litigators early risk signals on how Massachusetts courts police disclosure, witness scope, and court-record access. Each ruling is flagged reported-versus-confirmed and translated into practice takeaways for disclosure calendars, witness-limits motions, and protective-order drafting.

Portland police confirmed an open bias-crime investigation into reported spitting and anti-LGBTQ slurs at the July 31 Fire–Fever game, with no suspect or charge public as of Aug. 2, 2026. The record separates confirmed from reported facts and explains why the alleged spitting — rather than the slurs — can meet Oregon's second-degree bias-crime standard.

A confirmed-vs-reported breakdown of the Nancy Guthrie ransom-note case: the FBI's public statement and Reuters' anonymous-source report conflict on the notes' authenticity, the AI-authorship theory remains unproven, and the only docketed outcome so far is Callella's guilty plea to two harassment counts.

The Trump family's Capital One suit was dismissed in March 2026 and refiled on July 17, 2026; the bank's July 31 motion to dismiss now formally attributes the account closures to an internal anti-money-laundering review. The political-pretext claim now turns on whether discovery-derived allegations can overcome the bank's internal anti-money-laundering review, with the August 2026 scheduling and briefing deadlines carrying the near-term risk.

Because no blocking order has been published and the government has not commented, the takedown's lawful basis remains unverified — and judicial remedies stay open.

This claim-verification record gives counsel a documented verdict — event confirmed, causal explanation unsupported — with links to the primary sources behind each finding.
