Supreme Court of Florida

Hon. Andrew H. Warren v. Ron DeSantis

June 22, 2023

Summary

The court denied Warren’s petition for writs of quo warranto and mandamus because he waited more than six months after his suspension to seek relief and offered no persuasive explanation for the delay. The court held that the extraordinary nature of the requested writs permits denial for unreasonable delay without reaching the merits of the suspension order. The court noted that review of the suspension remained potentially available through proceedings before the Florida Senate.
