Sourced from 2 division tabs: https://www.15thcircuit.com/division/aj/instructions ; https://www.15thcircuit.com/division/aj/news. Clauses under 60 characters (navigation labels and section headings) were excluded; 628 such fragments were dropped circuit-wide. A separate curated highlight rule may cover one of these clauses with a sharper title — de-duplication is an open curation task, not a data gap.

CV-E layers a second conferral on top of Rule 1.202: certify conferral before filing the motion (Exhibit A) and again before scheduling it for hearing (Exhibit B).
