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. • CIVIL INJUNCTIONS FOR PROTECTION AGAINST DOMESTIC, DATING, SEXUAL, AND REPEAT VIOLENCE INFORMATION FOR PETITIONERS Witnesses - Witnesses must come to court to testify. • Proof of Income - If you are asking for child support or alimony, you must bring a financial affidavit or proof of income such as pay stubs, tax returns, etc. • But, for this type of injunction, there must have been two incidents of physical violence, threats of violence, or stalking, and one of these must have occurred in the last six months. “Family” includes people who you are related to by blood or marriage (spouses, ex-spouses, parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles), parties intimately involved and living together but never married, adopted children, step-parents and step-children, and others.

Reviewer note: Document sha256: 0f685973f3e7383700ecf17ed6be2d00b246c117a3e1676d184a5e963fa636c6 (309941 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.
Every circuit-civil case reviewed within 120 days of commencement and assigned a track (complex, streamlined, or general); case management orders required; firm continuance policy; sanctions for missed deadlines. Rescinds AO 21-09.
Circuit-civil hearing-availability standards: motion calendars ~2 weeks from request; 15-30 min special sets within 45-60 days; longer special sets scale.
