Division 42 (Judge James R. Harris) published an AI-use disclosure/certification requirement. Preempted eff. 6/15/2026 by Rule 2.515(d)(2) + AOSC26-12; still posted as of 7/5/2026.
ARTIFICIAL TECHNOLOGY An attorney may ethically utilize AI technologies but only to the extent that the lawyer can reasonably guarantee compliance with the lawyer’s ethical obligations.
Reviewer note: Parent AO vacated 6/15/2026 (AO 2026-19-Gen) + statewide preemption (AOSC26-12); division doc still posts mandate as of 7/5/2026 | Current procedure document re-fetched + sha256-hashed 2026-07-20 (17th upgrade pass).
G-2026-045-SC required anyone using generative AI to disclose it on the face of the filing and add a scripted certification, on pain of striking, denial of relief or monetary penalties. Rule 2.515(d)(2) and AOSC26-12 preempted it on June 15, 2026, so it could not be enforced — and by August 16, 2026 the Seventh Circuit had removed the order from its published register (no rescission instrument appears there). BenchPath holds the hashed capture as the historical record.
