Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure
Section 7
Substitution of Judge

RULE 3.231 | SUBSTITUTION OF JUDGE

If by reason of death or disability the judge before whom a trial has commenced is unable to proceed with the trial, or posttrial proceedings, another judge, certifying that he or she has become familiar with the case, may proceed with the disposition of the case, except in death penalty sentencing proceedings. In death penalty sentencing proceedings, a successor judge who did not hear the evidence during the penalty phase of the trial shall conduct a new sentencing proceeding before a new jury.

Committee Notes

1972 Adoption. New. Follows ABA Standard 4.3, Trial by Jury. Inserted to provide for substitution of trial judge in specified instances.

Congratulations! You're now booked up on Section 7 Fla. R. Crim. P. (the Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure)!

You'll probably need to reference it during your pursuit of justice.

For instance, you might need to invoke certain rules to seek justice from judges/lawyers who break the law (see this example of a Florida judge who outright committed perjury).

As always, please get the justice you deserve.

Sincerely,
