Broward Division 62J (KENNETH L. GILLESPIE) — Discovery

Source of truth

If the case is adversarial in nature and requires the setting of a final hearing or trial. The parties seeking to set the matter for Final Hearing/Trial must file a Notice of Readiness for Trial. Upon filing, a courtesy copy shall be sent to the Judicial Assistant, via email, along with any known notices of unavailability previously filed and all parties must be cc’d on this correspondence. The Court upon receiving the Notice shall set the matter for Pre-Trial Conference or Calendar Call. At the Pretrial Conference or Calendar Call the parties should be prepared to address the length of time the final hearing requires, the number of witnesses to be called, the outstanding discovery, and any pending Motions. The parties should have conferred prior to the Pretrial Conference or Calendar Call to ensure efficiency.

Reviewer note: Document sha256: 7a99f52d10ef8d25a72725ed57f39cce6d936105b85362842fd50330d93a8cc9. Corpus topic: DISCOVERY. Published during the completeness pass — the audit found 2,753 verbatim requirements against 123 published rules. GOOGLE DOCS VEIN: 102 of the Seventeenth Circuit's 106 division procedure documents are published as Google Docs (docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-...), not as PDFs on the court's own host. Two consecutive fetches of the same Google Doc URL return DIFFERENT bytes — Google injects per-request session config — so the document_sha256 recorded here pins one render, not a stable identity, and content-hash change detection does not work on this vein. Re-verified live 2026-07-24 by text presence instead: six sampled documents still carried 100%, 100%, 100%, 91%, 100% and 100% of their published requirements. Verbatim from the published divisional procedures, captured 2026-07-24; whitespace normalised only. [moved from the text 2026-09-14]
