On December 31, 2020, the Florida Supreme Court amended Florida Rule of Civil Procedure 1.510, which regulates summary judgment motions. With the change, the Florida rule now models itself after the federal rule like most other states. This amendment has been effective since May 1, 2021.
The movant must serve the motion for summary judgment at least 40 days before the time fixed for the hearingconsistent with the deadlines specified in the case management order.
1.280(f). This amendment codifies the courts expectation that parties must not only comply with disclosure obligations promptly but also refrain from initiating other forms of discovery until they have done so. Taken together, these changes represent a shift in Floridas approach to civil litigation.
The 2021 Rule required that the Motion for Summary Judgment (MSJ) be served at least 40 days before the hearing, with responses due 20 days before the hearing. No specific deadline for replies was set. Under the 2025 amendment, the Rule eliminates any reference to a hearing.
RULE 1.460 MOTIONS TO CONTINUE TRIAL Motion must be in writing unless made at a trial and, except for good cause shown, must be signed by the named party requesting the continuance.
