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. • That all causes of action arising out of a dissolution proceeding and brought after the conclusion of the dissolution of marriage action which seek a typical civil remedy, such as money damages or partition, shall be filed in the Civil Division of the Circuit Court and assigned to a Circuit Judge sitting in that division. • Any cause of action arising out of a dissolution of marriage action which is filed concurrently with the dissolution proceeding shall be filed in the Family Law Division of the Circuit Court and assigned to a Circuit Judge in that division.

Reviewer note: Document sha256: 3a44cced2f04ea906608228124d1591718b0540300722c3a2fab354e24357b5e (37768 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.
