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. • Also, find addresses for places where you and any children frequent, including schools, parks, sport or entertainment venues, homes of close relatives or friends and places of worship. • You will be required to file a ‘Notice of Related Cases” form, that must be accurate and complete. • If you forgot to put something in your petition, you must file a motion to amend your petition and state what you want to add. • Practice what you want to say to the judge.

Reviewer note: Document sha256: c9aa0effef50153624e176039dcc75b566975aabeef7c72c9c7e86b24f09e294 (137747 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.
