1 verbatim chambers requirement from Judge Andrew S. Hanen's published procedures (mediation & settlement).
United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas — Judge Andrew S. Hanen's cases only. Chambers procedures change without notice; the judge's own published document controls. Procedural information only; not legal advice.
Upon settlement of a lawsuit or prior to any mediation or other ADR procedure of a case involving a minor plaintiff, counsel will jointly move for appointment of an attorney ad litem if there is potential conflict of interest between the parent(s) and the minor.
Reviewer note: Composed 2026-09-26 from what the judge's own official page (https://www.txs.uscourts.gov/content/united-states-district-judge-andrew-s-hanen-senior) and the court's procedure pages publish for the judge: https://www.txs.uscourts.gov/sites/txs/files/Civil_Procedures_2026.docx (sha256 fdedf18613dc, docx, - pages); https://www.txs.uscourts.gov/sites/txs/files/Civil_Procedures_2026.pdf (sha256 bfb48a634838, pdf, 58 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. 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.
1 verbatim mandatory provision from 13-16-s.
2 verbatim mandatory provisions from 15-41-s.
43 verbatim mandatory provisions from 07-33-s.
