- COVID-19 pandemic's impact on trials and depositions
- Current judicial split over the award of punitive damages and express or affirmative findings
- Award of attorneys' fees and requests for admission that would resolve the ultimate issues, if admitted, versus requests for admissions that go to establishing a relevant fact
- Florida courts' recent holding that an order granting a motion to sever is not an appealable nonfinal order
- Court-ordered, nonbinding arbitration and the recent determination that a "request for a trial de novo," has the same meaning as a "motion for trial"
