1 verbatim requirement on continuances in FRANCIS VIAMONTES's division.
Seventeenth Judicial Circuit (Broward County) — Division FO only. Divisional procedures change without notice; the division page controls. Procedural information only; not legal advice.
An agreed Motion to Continue must be submitted to the Court as a supporting document with the order THROUGH THE CMS WORKBENCH by Tuesday at 3:00pm before the Calendar Call. If the Motion to Continue is not agreed to, it must be set for hearing or handled at the time of the Calendar Call. If a written continuance is granted, the Attorneys will be given a new calendar call date. If a written continuance is denied, the parties must appear at the calendar call.
Reviewer note: Document sha256: 00d89891e2cb64eb84031541d162cdb6278ec703aa5419705531d60e32d4ee9b. Corpus topic: CONTINUANCES. Published during the completeness pass — the audit found 2,753 verbatim requirements against 123 published rules. GOOGLE DOCS VEIN: 102 of the Seventeenth Circuit's 106 division procedure documents are published as Google Docs (docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-...), not as PDFs on the court's own host. Two consecutive fetches of the same Google Doc URL return DIFFERENT bytes — Google injects per-request session config — so the document_sha256 recorded here pins one render, not a stable identity, and content-hash change detection does not work on this vein. 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.
