Carroll-Harris v. Wilkie

3 Citing cases

  1. Golden v. Henry Ford Coll.

    Civil Action 23-10047 (E.D. Mich. Feb. 23, 2024)   Cited 2 times

    And, more generally, “‘submission of falsified evidence substantially prejudices an opposing party by casting doubt on the veracity of all of the culpable party's submissions throughout litigation.'” Carroll-Harris v. Wilkie, No. 17-11711, 2019 WL 2205851, at *7 (E.D. Mich. May 22, 2019) (quoting Garcia v. Berkshire Life Ins. Co. of Am., 569 F.3d 1174, 1180 (10th Cir. 2009)). In such cases, defendants bear “enormous additional effort and expense to ferret out plaintiff's lies and to double check every piece of information.” Id. (quoting Garcia, 569 F.3d at 1179).

  2. Brown v. Lewis Cnty. Primary Care Ctr.

    Civil Action 21-43-KKC (E.D. Ky. Sep. 6, 2023)

    ” Id. at *6. Because “willful fabrication of evidence ‘commits a fraud on the court,' it would be strange if the ‘sanction of dismissal depended only on the falsehood's relevance to the parties' claims, and failed to account for the act's interference with the judicial process.'” Carroll-Harris v. Wilkie, 2019 WL 2205851, at *6 (E.D. Mich. 2019) (quoting Garcia v. Berkshire Life Ins. Co. of Am., 569 F.3d 1174, 1181 (10th Cir. 2009)). Brown argues that Carroll-Harris is inapplicable to the matter at hand because, unlike the plaintiff in that case, Brown has not admitted to altering the FMLA application's date.

  3. Farrar v. Lapan

    No. 20-CV-10554 (E.D. Mich. Sep. 9, 2022)   Cited 2 times

    Although defendants eventually uncovered plaintiffs' fabrication of evidence, that fact does not mean defendants are not prejudiced. “'[S]ubmission of falsified evidence substantially prejudices an opposing party by casting doubt on the veracity of all of the culpable party's submissions throughout litigation.'” Carroll-Harris v. Wilkie, No. 2:17-CV-11711, 2019 WL 2205851, at *7 (E.D. Mich. May 22, 2019) (quoting Garcia v. Berkshire Life Ins. Co. of Am., 569 F.3d 1174, 1180 (10th Cir. 2009)).
