Reviewer note: Document sha256: c4589b5b39b51667b884d339e96a3c71e3028437ec16f3697c7c3c4f099c943d. Corpus topic: CONTINUANCES.

Re-verified live 2026-07-24 by text presence instead: six sampled documents still carried 100%, 100%, 100%, 91%, 100% and 100% of their published requirements.
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.

Judge Siperstein requires every motion to be set within 5 days of filing and heard within 60 days, or it may be deemed abandoned.
