EIGHTH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT

IN THE EIGHTH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT OF FLORIDA

ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 1.1000 [New Order No. 5.1000]

(Amending Administrative Order No. 2.000)

JUVENILE DOCKET DAY REQUIREMENT

WHEREAS, it appears that Administrative Order 2.000, Juvenile Docket Day Requirement, dated 6 December 1991, needs to be amended to eliminate any confusion created by the numbering sequence with other administrative orders and local rules, and

WHEREAS, the interests of justice will be served by the issuance of a standing order setting forth juvenile docket day requirements, Therefore, it is

ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that:

The juvenile in each case which appears on the trial docket in the juvenile division shall be present if said juvenile, through counsel or pro se, intends to announce ready for trial. The attorney for said juvenile shall be responsible for notice to the clerk of this court appearance requirement. Failure of the juvenile to be present will result in the service of a summons and ultimately a custody order for secure detention pending trial.

This requirement of being present at docket day does not and will not apply to any juvenile who on the date of docket day is in secure detention and said juvenile shall not be transported for said court appearance unless a separate order of transport has been entered.

DONE AND ORDERED this 15th day of January, A.D., 1992.

Signed\

ELZIE S. SANDERS
