Verbatim from the order's own text layer, harvested 2026-07-24; whitespace normalised only. No OCR was used. Only sentences containing mandatory language (shall, must, may not, no later than, within N) are reproduced — the full document is in custody and is the controlling text. • Honorable Matthew Gordon In addition to matters within the jurisdiction of the County Court, said circuit judge shall hear, conduct, try, and determine all issues in all divisions of the County Court of the said circuit -- 1 of 2 -- which shall be presented to him as temporary judge of said County Court and shall hear, conduct, try, and determine all issues in all divisions of the County Courts of all counties of said circuit, and therefore dispose of all matters considered by him while serving as said judge, provided that such matters be disposed of within thirty (30) days of the termination date of this Order. • This Order shall be effective April 20, 2026, and shall continue in force through December 31, 2026, unless otherwise vacated or amended.

Reviewer note: Document sha256: 63a4a0f421fa246c843f874c987ccd9dc1f1d99881209ad5436baa71d2f74880 (134144 bytes). BenchPath harvested this circuit itself because no research corpus existed for it. Extraction is conservative: mandatory-language sentences only, so this rule is a faithful subset of the order, never a summary of it.
The 17th Circuit's circuit-wide AI disclosure/certification mandate (Jan 2026, twice amended) was VACATED in its entirety effective June 15, 2026 by Chief Judge Phillips's AO 2026-19-Gen, expressly citing the statewide framework (AOSC26-12; Rule 2.515(d)(2), SC2026-0673). Several division procedure pages still cite the vacated order.
