What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Florida
I won a case in Florida and the court gave final judgment and the appeals time is also over and no party appealed. After several months, the defendant filed a motion regarding the enforcement of the judgment. The court heard it and gave an order. I believe that the court erred in its order (because it is essentially reopening the case) and I wish to file a motion for rehearing on this (post judgment) order. As per Rule 1.530 of Fl. Statutes, “A motion for new trial or for rehearing shall be served not later than 15 days after the return of the verdict in a jury action or the date of filing of the judgment in a non-jury action”. Is this 15 day time limit applicable for filing a rehearing motion on this order as well?
