But is it a mistrial if the lawyer uses autocorrect?

If you're found guilty because of a typo you're probably going to have a successful appeal.

If the lawyer reviewed the output and found it acceptable then how can you argue it was practicing law.

This could very well be what he has to prove. That the lawyer didn't do his due diligence and just trusted the ai.
