Florida court procedures have largely returned to their pre-pandemic practices following a range of emergency protocols addressing the 2019 novel coronavirus disease. However, certain pandemic-related protocols remain in place. For more information on how the pandemic continues to impact Florida courts, see Practice Note, Continuing Impacts of COVID-19 on Florida Practice: Overview. Counsel should also check their individual court’s administrative orders for more specific guidance.
