Synthetic Traps
Moving beyond static "fake lists" to infinite, deterministic traps that definitively prove hallucination. LegalChain generates structurally invalid citations that skip database lookup.

02 ADVERSARIAL_PARTY: "California v. Amazon Inc."
03 INVALID_VOL: 650 U.S. 312
>>> CRITICAL_FAILURE_DETECTED
Trap triggered: Vol 650 > known Max 590
Detection Strategy
The system uses impossible volume numbers. U.S. Reports currently end at Vol 590. Any citation to 600+ is physically impossible, requiring zero database lookups to verify as a hallucination.
