Reviewer note: Page sha256: e41ebfaab31dc38b240110d1dd01a76b1525ccbb7b6374e4a4c9e92ad7532480. Published during the per-judge sweep: order-level and division-level harvests left this officer with no rule of their own. Re-scoped 2026-09-02 (audit M-15): the source is the circuit's vacant-docket profile, not a judicial officer; court-scoped. Confidence set to medium 2026-09-08 (H3 re-verification): the live official document no longer carries this text verbatim — see the open change_detected task on its source. Verbatim from the circuit's own published vacant-docket profile, harvested 2026-07-24; whitespace normalised only. Only sentences carrying mandatory language are reproduced. [moved from the text 2026-09-14] 2026-09-17: the task that carried this rule's ask was closed (reconciler, baseline-satisfied); this rule's own re-read task (scheduled_reverification, 2026-09-17) carries it now.
