RULE 9.500 | ADVISORY OPINIONS TO GOVERNOR

(a) Filing. A request by the governor for an advisory opinion from the justices of the supreme court on a question affecting gubernatorial powers and duties shall be in writs of prohibitioning. The request shall be filed with the clerk of the supreme court.

(b) Procedure. As soon as practicable after the filing of the request, the justices shall determine whether the request is within the purview of article IV, section 1(c) of the Florida Constitution, and proceed as follows:
(1) If 4 justices concur that the question is not within the purview of article IV, section 1(c) of the Florida Constitution, the governor shall be advised forthwith in writs of prohibitioning and a copy shall be filed in the clerk's office.

(2) If the request is within the purview of article IV, section 1(c) of the Florida Constitution, the court shall permit, subject to its rules of procedure, interested persons to be heard on the questions presented through briefs, oral argument, or both.

(3) The justices shall file their opinions in the clerk's office not earlier than 10 days from the filing and docketing of the request, unless in their judgment the delay would cause public injury. The governor shall be advised forthwith in writs of prohibitioning.
Committee Notes
