Generative AI Disclosure — Division FI [VACATED: the order behind this page was vacated in full on June 15, 2026]

[VACATED — NOT A LIVE REQUIREMENT.] Division FI's instructions page still republishes Palm Beach AO 2.109-4/26's mandatory AI-disclosure sentence, but Chief Judge Kelley VACATED that order in its entirety effective June 15, 2026 at 12:01 a.m. (AO 2.109-5/26). No AI disclosure, certification, or tool-identification is required in Division FI or anywhere in the Fifteenth Circuit. Only statewide Rule 2.515(d)(2) applies.

Palm Beach: division pages still publishing the VACATED AI order — holdover map re-verified 2026-07-24

Five division pages still publish the vacated AO 2.109 as if it were live; Division FI still prints the operative "must disclose" sentence. Division AG was remediated between July 22 and July 24, 2026 — the first and so far only division to do so.

Palm Beach: recusal and disqualification reassignment cascade (AO 11.101-06/2026)

When a judge is disqualified or recuses, the Clerk first randomly reassigns within the same division at the same courthouse. Where a division has only one judge, or all its judges are conflicted, the order routes the case along a fixed six-branch cascade — foreclosure to Circuit Civil, IA and IZ paired, and branch-courthouse matters to the Main Courthouse.
