This is one pissed off federal judge.
"Six of the submitted cases appear to be bogus judicial decisions with bogus quotes and bogus internal citations."
The judge called (or probably had his clerks call) the 11th Circuit and confirmed that the decision wasn't real. He also points out that the internal citations are also to "bogus" cases.

  [NB: I did not intend this to be this long but whatever, we're all nerds here.]
  On May 4th, the shit really hits the fan. The judge issues an order to show cause why he shouldn't issue sanctions on PL for citing cases that don't exist and then swearing that the copies attached on April 25 are real. (Dkt #31)
