• The undersigned Chief Judge, independently, or at the request of the administrative or trial judge assigned to preside over a proceeding of great public interest, may instruct the Court Public Information Officer (“PIO”) to implement the procedures set forth within this Administrative Order. • The duties of the Media Committee shall include: designating pool coverage and camera locations in accordance with Rule 2.450(b)(4), Florida Rules of Judicial Administration; recommending to the administrative judge suitable interview and press conference areas, except as limited by paragraph #7 herein below; assisting with the allocation of Court-issued press credentials and courtroom seating assignments; overseeing the dissemination of information and providing a clearinghouse for media/Court issues arising during the case; equipping the media room(s); working with the Court to accommodate other special needs of the media; and setting up a final meeting of media personnel a few days prior to the commencement of the proceedings to explain procedures and instructions. • At the close of each day during the trial or proceeding, there will be an opportunity for the defense counsel, plaintiff’s counsel, state attorney, and/or their respective representatives, to answer questions from the media. Whether they avail themselves of this opportunity is solely at their discretion and convenience. An area to conduct such interviews will be determined on a case by case basis and as needed after the undersigned Chief Judge has conferred with the administrative judge, trial judge, PIO and other such interested parties. • In responding to such media questions, as prescribed in Fla. Bar Rule 4-3.6, counsel shall not make an extrajudicial statement that a reasonable person would expect to be disseminated by means of public communication if counsel knows or reasonably should know that it will have a substantial likelihood of materially prejudicing an adjudicative proceeding due to its creation of an imminent and substantial detrimental effect on that proceeding. • No disruptions, interference, outbursts, public demonstrations, loud or intrusive noises or distractions shall be permitted in the courtroom or its immediate surroundings. Anyone who fails to maintain decorum may be removed from the courtroom and/or banned from the courtroom for the duration of the trial.
The undersigned Chief Judge, independently, or at the request of the administrative or trial judge assigned to preside over a proceeding of great public interest, may instruct the Court Public Information Officer (“PIO”) to implement the procedures set forth within this Administrative Order.
