Reviewer note: Composed 2026-09-26 from what the judge's own official page (https://www.txed.uscourts.gov/?q=judge/district-judge-marcia-crone) and the court's procedure pages publish for the judge: https://www.txed.uscourts.gov/sites/default/files/judgeFiles/MC-16_Edits%20%2810.15.25%29.pdf (sha256 2e9bbf051999, pdf, 16 pages); https://www.txed.uscourts.gov/sites/default/files/judgeFiles/Standing_Order_MC-41_Settlements_And_Orders_Of_Dismissal.pdf (sha256 e03be0ba2e4b, scanned PDF without a reliable text layer, 2 pages, transcribed by eye from the page images in two passes, 1 second-pass corrections); https://www.txed.uscourts.gov/sites/default/files/judgeFiles/Standing_Order_MC-56.pdf (sha256 35a6dedc3a37, pdf, 2 pages); https://www.txed.uscourts.gov/sites/default/files/judgeFiles/MC-83%20%2810.16.25%29.pdf (sha256 817e815356ea, pdf, 6 pages). Whole sentences with mandatory language, verbatim, whitespace normalised only; grouped by topic as the Florida federal lane (2026-09-14). Custody: BenchPath's private custody store. Documents without a reliable text layer were transcribed by eye from their page images (vision lane, two passes; BenchPath's private custody store); a sentence with any illegible word is not published. Regrouped 2026-09-26: the topic map's Mediation pattern matched 'mediate' inside words such as 'immediately', 'intermediate' and 'remediation', so sentences using those words were filed under Mediation & settlement; it now matches whole words only. The sentences are unchanged; only their topic page changed.
