Reviewer note: Composed 2026-10-08 (California T4 Contra Costa build 2026-10-08) from BenchPath custody ca/t4/ca-contra-costa/pages/divisions__civil__motions-and-hearings__ex-parte-motions.html (the page as fetched 2026-10-08; 596759 bytes, sha256 0471cd97bda9166096812df6ea3d629e0634a31d2d6794f0330bf18faf59acc3) with html-compose.py (the Orange composer, with Contra Costa's area): the article's content sections (section.jcc-section), news bodies (div.jcc-news-full) and title banners (div.jcc-hero, which on this site can carry a lead paragraph; the first banner's heading, the page title, is chrome) - the site header, menus, breadcrumb and footer lie outside them; each block starts a line and each table cell is set on its own line; chrome removed: 1 item; proof (the multiset of non-space characters equals the containers' text less chrome and scripts) passes. Review note: The probate hours (9:00 am - 11:00 am; sign-in 8:00 am to 9:00 am) differ from Attachment 4(b) of the July 1, 2026 book (9:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m.) - the review task on Chapter 13's card.
