Requirement

• 8. Every notice of appeal, brief, motion, or appendix shall contain a certificate of service. See Fla. R. App. P . 9.420(d). 9. In the event that there are other cases pending before the Court involving related issues, the parties shall have a duty to inform the Court, in writing, as soon as possible. MOTIONS 10. Unless a party elects to invoke the limited concurrent jurisdiction of the lower tribunal under Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.600, any motion filed subsequent to the filing of the notice of appeal shall be filed with the appropriate Clerk’s Office’s appellate division. The Clerk shall promptly notify the appellate staff attorney. The appellate staff attorney shall review the motion and forward the same to the judge assigned to the appellate division. When any file comes to the appellate staff attorney’s attention, the appellate staff attorney shall promptly check for any outstanding motions that may need to be resolved. 11 . Motions for extension of time must be filed in strict conformance with Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.300(a). These motions shall be acted upon as soon as possible, as service of a motion may toll the time for future acts related to the event for which the extension is sought. Fla. R. App. P . 9.300(b). Each such motion, except those for which the practice is clearly inappropriate, shall contain an express representation that either opposing counsel has been contacted and has no objection to the relief requested, or that opposing counsel will promptly file an objection. Fla. R. App. P . 9.300(a). 12 . Practitioners should note that excessive motion practice is discouraged. Unnecessary or duplicative motion practice may result in the imposition of sanctions pursuant to Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.410. ORAL ARGUMENT 13. Oral argument may be permitted in any proceeding. A party’s request for oral argument must comply with Fla. R. App. P . 9.320. If oral argument is granted, the judicial assistant for the judge assigned to the appellate division shall coordinate the time and place of the argument with the parties and an appropriate order will be issued. It is important that requests for oral argument are timely considered so as to afford counsel sufficient time to prepare in the event that oral argument is granted. The Court may also require oral argument on its own motion. Fla. R. App. P . 9.320.
