Supreme Court of Florida

In Re: Amendments to the Florida Rules of Juvenile Procedure-2017 Fast-Track Report

February 1, 2018235 So. 3d 322

Summary

The court adopted the proposed out-of-cycle amendments to the Florida Rules of Juvenile Procedure to implement recent legislation and make technical revisions. The amendments address notice and consent consequences in motions to supplement dependency orders, transition-plan requirements, judicial review of older children, and reinstatement of jurisdiction for young adults with disabilities. Because the proposals were not published before adoption, the court allowed interested persons sixty days to submit comments.
