Reviewer note: Complete-coverage record. Page sha256: 9004fa302c9fe1894dc531665108b6529d82c6b313fe09851f0abe1c02c712bf. Clauses under 60 characters (navigation labels and section headings) were excluded; 628 such fragments were dropped circuit-wide.

Florida follows the federal summary-judgment standard. The motion must be served at least 40 days before the hearing; the nonmovant's response is due no later than 20 days before the hearing.
How Florida procedural deadlines are computed: exclude the trigger day; count every day for periods of 7 days or more; for periods under 7 days, skip intermediate weekends and legal holidays; roll forward when the last day is a weekend or holiday.
Judge Siperstein requires every motion to be set within 5 days of filing and heard within 60 days, or it may be deemed abandoned.
