Reviewer note: Composed 2026-10-07 (California T4 Imperial build 2026-10-07) from BenchPath custody ca/t4/ca-imperial/pages/online-services__remote-appearances.html (the page as fetched 2026-10-07; 635936 bytes, sha256 781d012707ccdfe1030454ae6a0c4079193a7b1425c800e611f588fbe02f9408) with html-compose.py (the Orange composer): the page's content sections (section.jcc-section, div.jcc-news-full) and, as recomposed 2026-10-08, its title banners (div.jcc-hero: their lead and aside text; the first banner's heading, the page title, set aside as 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 page sets three court days for traffic and criminal requests, citing the Executive Order re: Implementation of AB 199; Local Rule 2.21 (e) (amended July 1, 2026) requires registration no less than five business days before the hearing. A review task asks which governs traffic and criminal requests. Corrected 2026-10-08 (California T4 banner correction): the first composition read the content sections alone and left out the text the page prints in its title banner (2 lines, now where the page prints it); the card's other text is unchanged.
