The civil cover sheet and the information contained in it neither replace nor supplement the filing and service of pleadings or other documents as required by law. This form must be filed by the plaintiff or petitioner with the Clerk of Court for the purpose of reporting uniform data pursuant to section 25.075, Florida Statutes. (See instructions for completion.)The civil cover sheet and the information contained in it neither replace nor supplement the filing and service of pleadings or other documents as required by law. This form must be filed by the plaintiff or petitioner with the Clerk of Court for the purpose of reporting uniform data pursuant to section 25.075, Florida Statutes. (See instructions for completion.)Plaintiffs do not dispute their lack of service but instead offer a statutory interpretation argument for why service was not necessary for the civil cover sheet to trigger the start of the 30-day removal clock. Before addressing that argument, however, the Court notes that it is debatable the civil cover sheet would be enough to trigger the 30-day clock even if it had been served on Defendant. The cover sheet states on its face that "the information contained in it neither replace[s] nor supplement[s] the filing and service of pleadings or other documents as required by law," and that the requirement of filing the civil cover sheet is "for the purpose of reporting data pursuant to section 25.075, Florida Statutes." (Doc. 15-1 (emphasis in original).) See Naranja Princeton Cmty. Dev. Corp. v. Cornerstone Dev. Grp., Inc., 34 So. 3d 124, 126 n.1 (Fla. 3d DCA 2010). Other courts that have found the information contained on the face of the state cover sheet triggered the 30-day removal clock have relied on the sheet's non-clerical, substantive purpose under the applicable state law. See, e.g., Paros Props., LLC v. Colo. Cas. Ins. Co., 835 F.3d 1264, 1272 (10th Cir. 2016… The Cover Sheet for Family Court Cases and the information contained in it does not replace nor supplement the filing and service of pleadings or other documents as required by law.
