Courtroom 2728
On this assignment since June 8, 2026
North County Courthouse — 2728 / courtroom 4
Memoranda 10 pages / three principal cases per issue, three days ahead; over 10 pages requires hard copies, over 20 a binder. WARNING: the live page still republishes the mandatory AI-disclosure text of the VACATED AO 2.109-4/26 — strongest holdover in the circuit.
Verified 2026-08-03: the 15th's own judges grid publishes assignment and phone facts but no biography prose. A court fact, not a harvest gap.
Captured verbatim from the court's own published pages and orders during circuit verification. Chambers practices change without notice — confirm anything time-critical with the judicial assistant. Procedural information only; not legal advice.
Appeals from this courtroom go to the Fourth District Court of Appeal (West Palm Beach).

No judge-level deadline on record runs shorter than a statewide deadline with the same trigger. The sentinel compares quoted timing across every published rule scoped to this judge on each visit — a clean result today is re-earned tomorrow.
No judge-scoped deadlines on this tab. Deadlines are extracted only when the source rule text states them — we never infer or calculate dates the rule does not explicitly contain. 6 rule deadlines apply in this courtroom across all layers — assembled with citations in the Full Premium Report.
Timing shown here is quoted from the rule text. Compute your actual date against the court's calendar and the rule itself — not legal advice.
No verified ruling summary yet. BenchPath generates ruling summaries from opinion and docket corpora (CourtListener where covered) and publishes them only after human review — fabricated judicial analytics are exactly what this platform refuses to ship.
