ITEM 12J | FILING AND SERVING THE PRO SE BRIEF
After the
pro se
party
has finished writing the
brief
, he or she must file the original signed
brief
with the
appellate court
and must also serve a copy of the
brief
to the opposing attorney (usually by mail or delivery). For serving a copy, the
Florida Attorney General’s Office
represents the State in criminal
appeals
, and an
Assistant Attorney General
will be the opposing attorney in criminal
cases
. The
pro se
appellant
must complete the
certificate of service
at the end of the
brief
and indicate the day that the
pro se
party
gave the
brief
to the prison authorities for mailing. For
filing
with the
appellate court
, most courts used to require
pro se
appellants
to deliver the original and three copies of the
brief
to the
appellate court
. But now most
appellate courts
only require the original signed copy of the
brief
to be filed. This does not change the requirement that the
pro se
appellant
still must also serve a copy of the
brief
to the opposing attorney.
