After the June 15, 2026 vacatur, five Palm Beach division pages still linked or republished AO 2.109-4/26. Division FI is the most serious: its live instructions page still reproduces the mandatory disclosure sentence in full. None of these pages revive the vacated order — Rule 2.515(d)(2) is the only operative standard — but filers reading a division page can be misled.
Circuit-wide sweep of every division instructions and related-orders page, fetched and sha256-hashed 2026-07-22. VACATED-ORDER HOLDOVERS: (1) Division FI (Judge Scher) instructions — republishes the mandate in full, verbatim: 'the chief judge has issued administrative order 2.109-4/26. administrative order 2.109 applies to attorneys and self-represented litigants appearing before the circuit and county courts of the fifteenth judicial circuit. any attorney or self-represented litigant who uses any generative artificial intelligence tool in the preparation of a pleading, motion, memorandum, response, proposed order or other court document, must disclose such use on the face of the filing.' (2) Division FA (Judge Leitner) instructions — links AO 2.109 with generative-AI text. (3) Division FX (Judge Rowe) — BOTH instructions and related-orders link AO 2.109. (4) Division AI (Judge Curley) related-orders — lists '2.109 - disclosure of use of generative artificial intelligence by attorneys and self-represented litigants (PDF)'. (5) Division AO (Judge Sherriff) related-orders — same listing. COMPLIANT PAGES citing the current statewide standard instead: Divisions S, FZ and RD reference Rule 2.515 / SC2026-0673. TREATMENT: BenchPath tracks these as VACATED-BUT-POSTED and does not treat any of them as a live obligation. Monitoring task open for each.

Reviewer note: Division AO holdover was found by BenchPath and is not in the research corpus. The corpus also asserted a Division AD news item citing Rule 2.515 — not present on either AD page at fetch time, so it is NOT recorded as a finding.
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.
