These requests must be made at least five (5) working days in advance of the hearing. Florida Rule of General Practice & Judicial Administration 2.530 governs the use of communication technology for court proceedings. In other words, it controls whether a hearing can be scheduled on Zoom or in person. Considering that rule, the following proceedings will be held in person, subject to the exceptions described below: • Hearings scheduled for more than 30 minutes or upon the Court’s direction; • Evidentiary hearings; • Certain pretrial conferences, except small claims pretrial conferences set by the Clerk; • Jury trials, non-jury trials, small claims trials, and summary proceeding trials conducted under section 51.011; • Any other matter in which evidence will be taken. • All participants who have given proper notice of their intent to appear via zoom will be responsible to ensure that their internet connection is working and that their audio and video is clear. • Anyone who appears via zoom but fails to maintain an adequate internet connection may be considered absent from the hearing. DO NOT EXPECT THE COURT TO RESCHEDULE YOUR HEARING BECAUSE YOU OR A WITNESS DOES NOT HAVE AN ADEQUATE ZOOM CONNECTION. Parties should sign into Zoom using their full first and last names. • Whether your case is being heard via zoom or in person, you are expected to dress in courtroom attire and communicate from a location where you are able to fully focus on the proceeding without distraction. Under no circumstances may a party log into a courtroom proceeding while operating a motor vehicle, walking or any other activity which will detract from the proceedings.
If not, please do not hesitate to email Judge Nealis’ judicial assistant, Sharon Shoup.
