Reviewer note: Composed 2026-10-09 (California T4 Napa build 2026-10-09) from BenchPath custody ca/t4/ca-napa/pages/divisions__civil__civil-calendar-assignments.html (the page as fetched 2026-10-09; 633268 bytes, sha256 1af2d5a32d98b896c98cda40c4a9983e02d6a74cd6b3fe686c264334e44aca41) with the Orange HTML composer (compose-site.py, the Judicial Council theme's area): the article's content sections (section.jcc-section), news bodies (div.jcc-news-full) and title banners (div.jcc-hero; 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. Two table rows whose cells pair five items each (the civil mental health hearings: their types, days and months) are set one hearing a line with its day and months, as the cells pair them (build/zip_cells.py; the same characters, checked by a second reader). Review note: The page prints each civil department's civil mental health hearings as one table row of three cells holding five lines each (the hearing types, their days and their months); the card sets them one hearing type a line with its day and months, as the cells pair them (the same characters). The page also names the retired judges who hold civil settlement conferences in Department MSC and the small claims judges pro tem (not seeded as judicial officers).
