Reviewer note: Order PDF sha256: a88739e20d4bf6cea3fa01407644550437dd578f808323f4904b949681da506a. Extracted from the order's own text layer. One of several documents the Clerk publishes under order number 1991-04. | 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-extraction 2026-07-26: the operative section was located, but every paragraph in it is OCR of a scanned typescript too corrupt to quote verbatim. No requirement is published from it. The order remains held and sha256-hashed as a source document. | OCR recovery 2026-07-26: the order's embedded text layer was an old, corrupt OCR pass, so the page images were re-rendered at 300 dpi and read again with the Windows OCR engine. Confidence is MEDIUM and the text is labelled as non-verbatim, because fresh OCR of a typewritten carbon copy still misreads characters.
