pleadings need not be verified. The signature of an attorney or party, in
accordance with the requirements of § 1.52, shall be a certificate that the
attorney or party has read the pleading, motion, or other paper; that to the
best of his or her knowledge, information, and belief formed after
reasonable inquiry, it is well grounded in fact and is warranted by existing
law or a good faith argument for the extension, modification, or reversal of
existing law; and that it is not interposed solely for purposes of delay or
for any other improper purpose.
