    [Techdirt](https://www.techdirt.com/2023/02/14/kathryn-tewson-invites-donotpay-to-use-its-ai-lawyer-in-court-to-address-her-petition-for-pre-action-discovery-for-a-consumer-rights-claim/):

    But the really fun footnote is towards the end, where Tewson notes that she consents to Browder using his robot lawyer to defend himself in this case, and practically dares him to do so:

    For what it is worth, Petitioner does and will consent to any application Respondents make to use their “Robot Lawyer” in these proceedings. And she submits that a failure to make such an application should weigh heavily in the Court’s evaluation of whether DoNotPay actually has such a product.

    I love that while accusing him of fraud she's inviting Do Not Pay's creator to hoist himself on his own petard. :laugh:

    Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius

      What's really interesting about this is multiple courts told him he would be charged with practicing Law without a license if he used this AI system.
