Oops!  My 'software' (a certain OS component using a 
web interface to usenet) *hides* sigs. with a little '+'
to exapnd them - I fogot to check under the sig., and
did not see the code..

Too true.  Here is my simplified version..
<sscce>
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;

public class PanelTest extends JFrame {

   /** Creates new form PanelTest */
   public PanelTest() {
       initComponents();

       validate();
   }

   private void initComponents() {
       setDefaultCloseOperation(WindowConstants.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

      Container c = getContentPane();

      JSplitPane jSplitPane1 = new
         JSplitPane(
         JSplitPane.HORIZONTAL_SPLIT,
         new JLabel("left"),
            new ChoreHeaderPanel());

       c.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
       c.add( jSplitPane1, BorderLayout.CENTER );

       pack();
   }

   public static void main(String args[]) {
       EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
           public void run() {
               new PanelTest().setVisible(true);
           }
       });
   }
}

class ChoreHeaderPanel extends JPanel {

   public ChoreHeaderPanel() {
       initComponents();
   }

   private void initComponents() {
       jLabel1 = new JLabel();
       jLabel2 = new JLabel();
       jLabel3 = new JLabel();

       setBorder(BorderFactory.createLineBorder(new Color(0, 0, 0)));
       setMinimumSize(new Dimension(100, 35));
       jLabel1.setText("Chores");

       jLabel2.setText("Red");

       jLabel3.setText("White");

       GroupLayout layout = new GroupLayout(this);
       this.setLayout(layout);
       layout.setHorizontalGroup(
           layout.createParallelGroup(GroupLayout.Alignment.LEADING)
           .addGroup(layout.createSequentialGroup()
               .addContainerGap()
               .addComponent(jLabel1,
                  GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE,
                  76,
                  GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE)
               .addGap(50, 50, 50)
               .addComponent(jLabel2,
                  GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE,
                  37,
                  GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE)
               .addGap(0, 0, 0)
               .addComponent(jLabel3)
               .addContainerGap(304, Short.MAX_VALUE))
       );
       layout.setVerticalGroup(
           layout.createParallelGroup(GroupLayout.Alignment.LEADING)
           .addGroup(layout.createSequentialGroup()
               .addGroup(layout.createParallelGroup(GroupLayout.Alignment.
BASELINE)
                   .addComponent(jLabel2)
                   .addComponent(jLabel3)
                   .addComponent(jLabel1))
               .addContainerGap(18, Short.MAX_VALUE))
       );
   }// </editor-fold>

   private JLabel jLabel1;
   private JLabel jLabel2;
   private JLabel jLabel3;
}
</sscce>

.and.  What was the question again?
The main problem seemed to be all those dang
GroupLayouts - I don't know what you intend putting 
into the split pane panels, but I think you need to
get each root component validated and on-screen 
seperately, before trying to put it in a further layout
that goes into the split pane!
