Reviewer note: Operative requirements quoted verbatim from the registered document; the companion approved-mediator list (doc 1262) is receipted with this rule rather than composed separately (a roster attachment); the court's registered 2023 COVID procedures (doc 1263) are adjudicated separately; custody sha256 values in the registry ledger.
