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.
Ex parte in CV-E is strictly for uncontested matters resolvable in five minutes or less, held 9:00–10:00 a.m. on posted dates (website and outside Hearing Room 739). In-person, telephonic, Zoom, and hybrid appearances are permitted under Rule 2.530.
