Moving on Up

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

The First DCA this weekend will make its big move to its new (if controversial) digs. As a result, the Court will be closed tomorrow, December 17th. Admin Order. 10-6 [.pdf]. After what will no doubt be a crazy weekend for essential staff, the Court will reopen for business on Monday morning at its new location: 2000 Drayton Drive
Tallahassee, Florida 32399-0950. [.pdf notice]. Be sure to update your mailings accordingly. And hey, if you have a brief due on December 17 in the First DCA, you arguably just got yourself an extra day to serve it. Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.420 (f)(15) states that in calculating due dates, “any other day when the clerk’s office is closed” is considered a holiday.

It’s on my nightstand now, and I am looking forward to doing a full review over the holidays.

But in the meantime, let me say this much: It’s Puuuurty. And eminently practical as well — stay tuned for a more thorough review!
