Summary

Broward Circuit Civil Division 04 — Online Procedures (REVISED JULY 2026)

Requirement

Division 04 is VACANT from July 1, 2026 (Judge Miranda moved to County Divisions 52/53; appointment pending) — but its July 2026 REVISED procedures remain the controlling division rules. All limits below verified verbatim from the hashed official PDF: • Motion-calendar motions "shall not exceed four (4) pages"; responses "shall not exceed three (3) pages." • Special-set motions shall not exceed ten (10) pages; responses "shall not exceed seven (7) pages." • "No party shall file any reply or further memorandum directed to the motion or response" absent leave; "A motion requesting relief from the page limitation shall not exceed two (2) pages" and must specify compliance efforts. • Formatting: margins "not less than one inch. Font size shall not be less than 12 points," double spacing. • Summary judgment: "The moving party shall file a statement of material facts as a separate filing… The statement shall not exceed twelve" pages; "A reply statement of facts is not permitted"; all exhibits referenced must be filed on the docket (already-filed exhibits need not be refiled). • "Special Set Hearings for up to 30 minutes may be set online"; 15- and 30-minute slots. • Zoom: Non-Jury Docket meeting ID 726 619 094 (17thflcourts.zoom.us/j/726619094). • Exhibit-index, trial-exhibit, deposition-designation, cancellation, conferral, and proposed-order requirements per the full order (24,219 chars archived). Sic preserved: the Zoom exhibit still carries former Judge Haury's name although the section is vacant.

Reviewer note: Vacant-section rules; watch for successor judge and revised posting. Division 04 is held by Judge Catalina Avalos according to the court's judiciary directory (read 2026-10-13), and the directory links a different procedures document for the division than the one this rule was read from; the rule is re-read against the current document before it returns to high confidence.
