Repository of Judicial Standing Orders Including AI Segments
This repository is current to our knowledge as of 2/10/2025 and will be updated periodically. We encourage all practitioners to use this as a starting point for their own research into their jurisdiction, facts and particular circumstances. This repository is designed to be educational in nature and is not legal advice. Thank you to Baker & Hostetler LLP for assistance in researching these opinions.
Note: EDRM does not take a position on whether judicial orders are necessary or desirable. For additional perspectives, see Hon. Ralph Artigliere (Ret.), Ethical AI Guideposts for Lawyers Using Generative AI, EDRM BLOG, OCTOBER 31, 2023.
