March 15, 201237 Fla. L. Weekly Supp. 231
Summary
The Supreme Court of Florida adopted proposed amendments to several family-law forms, including a new notice form for family cases involving minor children, effective nunc pro tunc to January 1, 2012. The court declined to adopt the proposed amendment concerning process because of substantial concerns raised in comments and oral argument, and declined to adopt a proposed collaborative-process rule because legislative action and necessary training or certification foundations remained unsettled.
