Reviewer note: Order PDF sha256: 173bfbef4715fb66e42ea2ebebf71a57344ada2ea3bf1ecb21d4826f0171ba64. Extracted from the order's own text layer. | Title normalised 2026-07-26 for readability; the court's own asset name was "20th Cir. Document (unlisted) — [unlisted] tct2008_fall". Only the display title changed — the requirement text, source URL and hash are untouched. | Set to in_review 2026-07-26: the order's subject looks practitioner-facing but the extracted text captured only recitals or an effective date, not the operative ORDERED section. This is an extraction defect, not a judgement that the order is unimportant — it needs re-extraction before it goes back on the published surface. | Re-extracted 2026-07-26 from the numbered paragraphs following the order's ORDERED clause, replacing a first pass that had captured recitals and the effective date. 38 further paragraph(s) were left out because their OCR is too corrupt to quote.
