Circuit Court Orders as Authority? You Betcha.

Last month, a bank tried to prevent me from citing circuit court orders in a pending appeal, arguing these citations should be stricken.  I found their argument misguided (not to mention inappropriately personal), and I blogged about it here.

Well, as I anticipated, Florida’s Fourth District Court of Appeal denied the bank’s motion, allowing me to cite circuit court orders in an appeal as persuasive authority.

That blue box I regularly carry with me to court?  The circuit court rulings I circulate to try to convince other judges on novel issues of law in foreclosure-world?  Yeah … they’ll remain part of the arsenal.  :)
