Reviewer note: Own-site HTML page read in full 2026-09-06 from custody; quoted verbatim; the page also carried a one-day closure notice (noon, Sept. 4), not composed; names Judge Alan Wheeler (spine tx-alan-robert-wheeler). Composed benchpath-ajr8-denton (own-site lane).
Judge Costello's AI section simply restates amended Rule 2.515(d)(2) — the post-AOSC26-12 statewide standard — a compliance model, not a local mandate: signers certify cited authorities exist and are accurately cited, with the rule's own sanctions.
The strongest in-the-wild confirmation of the 2026 statewide AI rule: Judge Bantner's page expressly states his prior AI requirements are REMOVED because of the May 28, 2026 amendment of Rule 2.515 — signing a filing now itself certifies the authorities exist and are accurately cited.
