Title IV-D child support matters in the 10th Circuit are heard by nine child support enforcement hearing officers appointed by the chief judge under Fla. Fam. L. R. P. 12.491.
Title IV-D child support enforcement proceedings in Hardee, Highlands and Polk Counties. Five of these nine (Matis-Jackson, Steimle, Vandenbosch, Sirmons and Zucker) hold a SECOND appointment as magistrates under AO 5-44.5 and AO 6-10.6 — the same person may appear in either role depending on the case type.
AO 5-31.12 creates the position of child support enforcement hearing officer and appoints nine officers: Robin Matis-Jackson, Christine Daly, Maria Zucker, Philip Vandenbosch, Jennifer Steimle, Jeffrey Sirmons, Kymberly Clements, Donald Frenette, and Patrick Vincent. The chief judge appoints one or more hearing officers pursuant to the procedures established by Rule 12.491, following a vote of a majority of the circuit judges.
There is hereby created the position of child support enforcement hearing officer. The chief judge shall appoint one or more hearing officers pursuant to the procedures established by Rule 12.491. ... Robin Matis-Jackson, Christine Daly, Maria Zucker, Philip Vandenbosch, Jennifer Steimle, Jeffrey Sirmons, Kymberly Clements, Donald Frenette ... and Patrick Vincent are hereby appointed as hearing officers pursuant to the provisions described herein.
G-2026-045-SC required anyone using generative AI to disclose it on the face of the filing and add a scripted certification, on pain of striking, denial of relief or monetary penalties. Rule 2.515(d)(2) and AOSC26-12 preempted it on June 15, 2026, so it could not be enforced — and by August 16, 2026 the Seventh Circuit had removed the order from its published register (no rescission instrument appears there). BenchPath holds the hashed capture as the historical record.
