The court is aware that Ms. Perry has been warned by another court against such practices. The court warns Ms. Perry that fabricated citations and misrepresentations will not be tolerated. This is the only warning Ms. Perry will receive. Ms. Perry should expect that any future instances of fabricated citations and misrepresentations, in this case or any case in this court, will be sanctioned.
