75 So. 3d 239 | Fla. | 2011
The Appellate Court Rules Committee (Rules Committee) has filed its regular-cycle report of proposed rule changes in accordance with Florida Rule Judicial of Administration 2.140(b)(4). We have jurisdiction. See art. V, § 2(a), Fla. Const.
BACKGROUND
The Rules Committee proposes amendments to existing rules 9.100(b) (Original Proceedings); 9.110(b) (Appeal Proceedings to Review Final Orders of Lower Tribunals and Orders Granting New Trial in Jury and Non-Jury Cases); 9.120(b) (Discretionary Proceedings to Review Decisions of District Courts of Appeal); 9.125 (Review of Trial Court Orders and Judgments Certified by the District Courts of Appeal as Requiring Immediate Resolution by the Supreme Court); 9.130 (Proceedings to Review Non-Final Orders and Specified Final Orders); 9.140 (Appeal Proceedings in Criminal Cases); 9.150 (Discretionary Proceedings to Review Certified Questions from Federal Courts); 9.160 (Discretionary Proceedings to Review Decisions of County Courts); 9.180 (Appeal Proceedings to Review Workers’ Compensation Cases); 9.190 (Judicial Review of Administrative Action); 9.200(b)(4) (The Record; Transcript(s) of Proceedings); 9.225 (Notice of Supplemental Authority); 9.370 (Amicus Curiae); 9.420 (Filing; Service of Copies; Computation of Time); and 9.800 (Uniform Citation System). The Rules Committee also proposes new rule 9.170 (Appeal Proceedings in Probate and Guardianship Cases) and new form 9.900(j) (Notice of Supplemental Authority), which corresponds to its proposed amendments to rule 9.225.
The Rules Committee proposed new and amended rules; it published the proposals for comment in accordance with rule 2.140(b)(2). Three comments were received and considered by the Rules Committee. The Florida Bar Board of Governors unanimously approved the proposals.
The Court published the proposals for comment and received four comments: one comment addressing amendments to rule 9.140; one comment addressing new rule 9.170; and two comments addressing proposed amendments to rule 9.420. The Rules Committee filed a response, which includes revised proposed amendments for rules 9.140 and 9.420, respectively.
AMENDMENTS
Oral argument was held on the proposals.
Rule 9.140(d)(1)(E) (Appeal Proceedings in Criminal Cases; Withdrawal of Defense Counsel After Judgment and Sentence or After Appeal by State) is amended to recognize the recently created Office of Criminal Conflict and Civil Regional Counsel and to clarify the procedures regarding representation in criminal cases. We modify the proposed amendment because chapter 27, Florida Statutes, provides that private counsel may be appointed by court order and compensated with public funds. See § 27.40(7)(a), Fla. Stat. (2011).
Accordingly, we amend the Florida Rules of Appellate Procedure as set forth in the appendix to this opinion. New language is indicated by underscoring; deletions are indicated by struck-through type. The committee notes are offered for explanation only and are not adopted as an official part of the rules. These amendments shall become effective on January 1, 2012, at 12:01 a.m.
It is so ordered.
