Florida Supreme Court Approves Amendments

The Florida Supreme Court today released new Amendments to the Florida Family Law Rules, which are available for complete review on that Court’s website.  As proposed in February, the Court adopted the amendments to Forms 12.913(a), 12.913(b), and 12.913(c), all of which deal with diligent search and noticing actions for dissolution, as well as releasing a new form, 12.913(a)(2), a Notice of Action for cases with minor children.  Due to the issues raised at oral argument, however, the Court declined to adopt the amendments to Florida Family Law Rule of Procedure 12.070.
