  1. 28.13 REFUSAL TO SUBMIT TO TESTING
    PAGE 244
  2. While leave of court would be required to remove the original note from the custody of the Clerk, see § 28.13, the Clerk would have no authority to relinquish the note to anyone else but Deutsche Bank. By surrendering the original promissory note to the Clerk for the limited purpose of removing it from the stream of commerce to obtain a judgment of foreclosure, Deutsche Bank did not relinquish the statutorily required possession necessary to establish its status as a holder of the note with standing to sue for its enforcement. As such, the trial court erred in granting summary judgment in favor of Mr. Noll.

  3. Doe v. State

    210 So. 3d 154 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 2016)   Cited 2 times
    Although I suspect in many of the rulings in which we see a writ of mandamus issued to enforce a rule of procedure, one would only need to scratch the surface of the cited rule to discern a more substantive, legal duty that was being compelled. For example, our holding in Office of the Attorney General v. Shore, 41 So.3d 966 (Fla. 2d DCA 2010), focused on whether the clerk of the circuit court had complied with applicable appellate and judicial administration rules by forwarding copies of criminal case records to a public defender in CD–ROM format, but the underlying source of the clerk's ministerial duty to compile and provide access to a record is founded in state statutes. See § 28.13, Fla. Stat. (2010) ; Radford v. Brock, 914 So.2d 1066, 1068 (Fla. 2d DCA 2005) ("The Clerk of the Circuit Court has a legal duty to maintain and to provide access to the records contained in its files unless the records are legally exempt from disclosure." (citing §§ 28.13 ; 119.01(1), (3); 119.011(1), (2), Fla. Stat. (2003) )). Even in Gawker Media, LLC v. Bollea, 170 So.3d 125 (Fla. 2d DCA 2015), we appeared to premise our issuance of mandamus as much on the force of…
  4. Instruction 28.13 (Refusal to Submit to Testing) is amended in four ways. First, the word “lawfully” is added to the element that the defendant was arrested for driving under the influence. Next, the term “swamp buggy” is added to the “motor vehicle” definition section. Next, a table of lesser-included offenses is added to include the offense of attempt. And finally, the Comment is amended to include the following: “Where the lawfulness of the arrest is at issue, a special instruction may be warranted.”

  6. Schaab v. State

    33 So. 3d 763 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 2010)   Cited 6 times
    The contempt in this case arose from a felony proceeding, a circuit court case. Section 38.22 gave the circuit judge jurisdiction to hear and punish the contempt. The clerk's assignment of a misdemeanor case number did not affect the status of the contempt as a circuit court matter over which that court had jurisdiction. "[F]ile numbers are merely an administrative convenience for the clerk but not a statutory prerequisite for filing by the parties to the action." Tanner v. State, 744 So.2d 1017, 1019 (Fla. 4th DCA 1997). Case numbers assist a clerk in satisfying the statutory duty to keep all papers filed "with the utmost care and security, arranged in appropriate files." § 28.13, Fla. Stat. (2008). Because the judgment of indirect criminal contempt was a circuit court matter, the appellate division of the circuit court did not have jurisdiction to hear the appeal.

  7. Having considered the Committee's report and the comments filed, we approve for publication and use instructions 2.4, 2.7, 3.8(a), 8.18, 8.19, 21.5, 21.6, and 28.13, as proposed by the Committee. In addition, we approve for publication and use, with the modifications discussed below, instructions 3.3(f), 11.11, 14.5, and 14.6.
  8. Radford v. Brock

    975 So. 2d 472 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 2007)
    On remand from this court's prior opinion, the circuit court complied with the proper procedures for addressing these writs by issuing an order to show cause why the petition for writ of mandamus should not be granted. In response, the court reporter and the clerk submitted sworn affidavits attesting that they do not have the records Mr. Radford requests. Under section 28.13, Florida Statutes (1987), the clerk has a duty to "keep all papers filed in his office with the utmost care and security, arranged in appropriate files (endorsing upon each the time when the same was filed)." The court reporter must retain the original notes of proceedings for specified time periods, such as two years for proceedings when a transcript was prepared and for ten years in a felony case when a transcript was not prepared. See Fla.R.Jud.Admin. 2.075(e)(1), (2) (1988).

  9. 1996 Adoption. This rule was written as a result of the problems being encountered in the removal of files from clerks' offices. While the purpose of the rule is to discourage the removal of court files, it is not intended to prohibit chief judges or the chief justice from issuing for good cause a general order providing that attorneys or authorized individuals may be allowed to check out files on a routine basis to assist in the administrative efficiency of a court. We note that section 28.13, Florida Statutes (1995), similarly prohibits the removal of files from clerks' offices.

  10. Radford v. Brock

    914 So. 2d 1066 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 2005)   Cited 29 times
    The Clerk of the Circuit Court has a legal duty to maintain and to provide access to the records contained in its files unless the records are legally exempt from disclosure. §§ 28.13; 119.01(1), (3); 119.011(1), (2), Fla. Stat. (2003). Similarly, to the extent that Ms. Holton is in custody of public records, she is obligated to permit the records to be inspected and copied upon proper payment. See § 119.07(1)(a); see also Mathis v. State, 722 So.2d 235, 236 (Fla. 2d DCA 1998) (recognizing that a defendant "has a right to purchase transcripts of his court proceedings"). In addition, Ms. Holton, as a court reporter, is required to retain the original notes or electronic records of proceedings or depositions for specified time periods. For example, when a transcript has not been prepared, a court reporter must retain the notes or records relating to judicial proceedings in felony cases for ten years. See Fla. R.J. Admin. 2.075(f).
