Reviewer note: Composed 2026-09-26 from what the judge's own official page (https://www.txs.uscourts.gov/page/united-states-district-judge-drew-b-tipton) and the court's procedure pages publish for the judge: https://www.txs.uscourts.gov/sites/txs/files/Tipton%20Procedures%20%28Current%29%2005-2025.pdf (sha256 5dbc44747b7d, pdf, 26 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.
