Eighteenth Judicial Circuit. Check the order's own effective and rescission dates before relying on it. Procedural information only; not legal advice.
Verbatim from the order's own text layer, harvested 2026-07-24; whitespace normalised only. No OCR was used. Only sentences containing mandatory language (shall, must, may not, no later than, within N) are reproduced — the full document is in custody and is the controlling text. • Any misdemeanors (criminal traffic or otherwise) or ordinance violations which arise out of the same circumstances as a felony shall not be separated from the felony. 2. • Upon receipt of an arrest report including felonies, misdemeanors (criminal traffic or otherwise), or ordinance violations, the court clerk shall assign a felony ("CF") case -- 1 of 2 -- 2 number to include all such related charges, including any criminal traffic charges for which the arresting officer may have issued a uniform traffic citation. 5. • Court clerks and judges assigned to first appearances at the jail shall provide a defendant an appropriate felony court date to cover all felonies, misdemeanors (criminal traffic or otherwise), and ordinance violations arising out of the same circumstances and included on a single arrest report. 6. • All felonies, misdemeanors (criminal traffic or otherwise), and ordinance violations arising out of the same circumstances shall be included in a single indictment or information. • For the Clerk's tracking purposes, the indictment or information shall include, along with the "CF" case number, the uniform traffic citation numbers for any criminal traffic charges issued by the arresting officer or State Attorney's office. 7. • In the event the State reduces all pending felony charge to a misdemeanor, then any remaining related misdemeanors (criminal traffic or otherwise), or ordinance violations shall forthwith be reassigned a "MM" case number and be transferred to the appropriate division of the county court. 9. • Any civil traffic infractions which arise out of the same circumstances as a felony shall receive their own “TR”case number.
Any misdemeanors (criminal traffic or otherwise) or ordinance violations which arise out of the same circumstances as a felony shall not be separated from the felony. 2.
Reviewer note: Document sha256: 925e781cdc4d36460f2b79e365aed7907bec44ac1e8c1336ed3b3ae84d96cbfd (97720 bytes). BenchPath harvested this circuit itself because no research corpus existed for it. Extraction is conservative: mandatory-language sentences only, so this rule is a faithful subset of the order, never a summary of it. | Scope corrected 2026-08-03: the 18th numbers county-specific orders with -b (Brevard) and -s (Seminole); unsuffixed orders are circuit-wide. This rule was bulk-tagged to one county at harvest; the court's own numbering convention now controls.
