- New discussion of administrative appeals and the issue of mootness.
- Florida Legislature’s recent removal from circuit courts of appellate jurisdiction.
- Current judicial conflict over whether an order granting a Fla. R. Crim. P. 3.800(a) motion before resentencing constitutes a final, appealable order, and whether the postconviction court retains jurisdiction to reconsider its ruling granting the motion before resentencing.
- The record on appeal and the availability of unredacted records upon request, without a court order, under Fla. R. App. P. 9.200.
