Reviewer note: Document sha256: 46bfe0c725a0b4f32c396818f7bb2954a4742dfa8018091518f98581e0a1af33. 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.
Every party setting a hearing in Division AO must first confer in a good-faith effort to resolve the matter, and every hearing notice must include a certificate of that conferral. The division instructions state that conferral requires counsel to actually talk.
Under the 2025 case-management amendments, a movant must confer with the opposing party in a good-faith effort to resolve a nondispositive motion before filing it, and must include a certificate of conferral.
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).
