Motion for Re-Hearing

[Richard Silverm]

I'm in the State of Florida and need a sample of a "Motion for Rehearing". I've looked everywhere and haven't found one. This thing has to be filled 10 days fromn August 31st and I'm running out of time. Any help would really be appreciated. I don't have an attorney but my folks ar going to borrow some money so I can try to get some releif.

As far as I know, Fla. does not have any Motion For Rehearing forms, so you will have to make one up yourself. This is how my husband did his:

IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE (your circuit number) JUDICIAL CIRCUIT,
IN AND FOR (your county) COUNTY, STATE OF FLORIDA


(your name) , Petitioner
V
(your ex's name) , Respondent

(your case #)
MOTION FOR REHEARING


Just state that you ask the court for a rehearing of the- petition or motion that was heard, putting the name in caps with quotation marks.

Then state the reasons for your request, be as specific as you can, and cite any laws applicable to rehearing.

Near bottom type your name address and phone #, sign above your name

Under that type the following;
I hereby certify that a true and correct copy of this motion was served on (ex's name) at (ex's address) by certified mail the ----day of-----------.
(if ex has an attorney, serve both att. and ex)

I am not an attorney, but we live in Fl. and my husband did get a rehearing using this motion pro-se.

Depending on where youi live in Fla, you may want to type it up asap, if you lose power due to Hurricane Frances, the court will still hold you to the 10 day time limit.
Good luck on both you case and the hurricane. I live inland, but they expect the eye to go right over us, Oh fun!

Thanks so much. Just what I needed. My son couldn't afford an attorney. Really got it, and now we're going to have to get a 2nd on the house to try and help him. But got to file for the Re-hearing to get some time to get a loan.

Gracie,

Do you know if this motion need to be notorized. I kind of think now but did your husband have his notorized.

Thanks

No, motions do not have to be notarized, but petitions do. If you want to notarize the motion I don't think it will do any harm. Be sure to file the original with the court.
