I mean, he was sort of fucking around. A lawyer that is fine using AI for a case should never be allowed to work as a lawyer after that. That's a gigantic moral flaw.

How ? Typically the law society is the group to remove a lawyers license to practice. He could perhaps refer them but this is different the world over.

A judge can't revoke a law license. But they can issue a fine and bar them from their courtroom.

The judge's action in this case was brutal. It's the legal equivalent of a public caning.
