Fourth Judicial Circuit, Duval County. Procedural information only; not legal advice.
Verbatim from this judge's published procedure documents (https://www.jud4.org/getContentAsset/c054c1c5-7093-4f88-84f2-82521cc5467c/135b97c9-84fa-4e82-b956-0fbccec4aa1f/Practices-and-Procedures.pdf?language=en), harvested 2026-08-04; each bullet is quoted whole from the document, whitespace normalised only. • Division CR-H Procedures & Practice Guidelines Established Pursuant to Florida Rule of General Practice & Judicial Administration 2.215(f) 1. ADMINISTRATIVE PASSES Instead of calling a case during calendar, counsel can get an administrative pass under these conditions: A. Counsel emails Judicial Assistant Kristy Bend at kbend@coj.net, with a copy to opposing counsel, stating what has been done on the case since the last pass date, what will be done on the case before the next pass date, and the requested pass date. • C. An email to request an administrative pass or add a case to the calendar must be sent by 2:00 the day before the next scheduled appearance. • Final pretrial conferences may not be administratively passed or cancelled. • Counsel must prepare for calendar ending early on Monday, i.e. show up at 9:00 a.m. Avoid putting cases on for ordinary pretrial hearings on Tuesday and Wednesday. When the division is in trial, those days will be filled addressing competency reviews, specially setting hearings, arraignments (usually Tuesdays), plea bargains, and final pretrial conferences (usually Wednesdays). Expect calendar to start at 8:30 a.m. when a trial is underway. Expect long calendars on Thursdays. • 3. PROPOSED ORDERS Proposed orders should be submitted through the Florida Courts’ E-Filing Portal only after all parties have agreed to the submission of the order and Marsy’s Law has been complied with when it applies.
An email to request an administrative pass or add a case to the calendar must be sent by 2:00 the day before the next scheduled appearance.
