Senior United States District Judge — S.D. Fla.
1 verified rule specific to this judge's division, grouped by requirement category. 75 total requirements apply in this courtroom across all layers — the Full Premium Report assembles the complete stack.
No judge-level deadline on record runs shorter than a statewide deadline with the same trigger. The sentinel compares quoted timing across every published rule scoped to this judge on each visit — a clean result today is re-earned tomorrow.
No judge-scoped deadlines on this tab. Deadlines are extracted only when the source rule text states them — we never infer or calculate dates the rule does not explicitly contain.
Timing shown here is quoted from the rule text. Compute your actual date against the court's calendar and the rule itself — not legal advice.
No verified ruling summary yet. BenchPath generates ruling summaries from opinion and docket corpora (CourtListener where covered) and publishes them only after human review — fabricated judicial analytics are exactly what this platform refuses to ship.
The attributed-opinion corpus covers Florida's appellate review of state trial courts; federal judges are reviewed in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit, a separate corpus build. Absence here is a coverage statement, never evidence about this judge — the live case-law search below covers the federal courts directly.
