Marion County Case No. 2013-CA-115, FL Fifth Judicial Circuit; 42-2013CA000115-CAAXXX


Dear Mr. King,
This is a request for criminal prosecution of Danielle Nicole Parsons, and Curtis Alan Wilson.
Ms. Parsons was the attorney who commenced 2013-CA-115. At the time she worked for
McCalla Raymer, see attached. Today the Florida Bar directory page for Ms. Parsons does not
show any employer, see attached. Mr. Wilson is a coconspirator who replaced Ms. Parsons, and
is employed by McCalla Raymer, see attached.
I spoke with Detective Dice on November 9, 2015. A draft transcript of the call shows,
12 [Dice] So that's a criminal statute [837.06], I agree with you
13 on that, but the jury instructions give us the elements
14 of the crime that we have to prove in court in order to
15 have probable cause. And one of them is we have to be
16 able to prove evidence of intent to mislead, so the mere
17 filing on a document is not intent to mislead. I have
18 to prove something else that goes along with it to, sort
19 of, put it together.
The intent to mislead and something else that goes along with it is the fact that Ms. Parsons
did not filed with the Clerk a Promissory Note (to show standing) required under a residential
foreclosure. Mr. Wilson has continued the case, with new violations.
Florida is a Judicial Foreclosure state. The citations to Floridas foreclosure statutes are:
F.S. 702.01 through 702.11, and
F.S. 45.031 through 45.0315.
1. Ms. Parsons filed a civil cover sheet (Form 1.997) not properly executed violating Rule
1.100(c)(2) Fla.R.Civ.Pro, see attached.
2. Ms. Parsons falsely verified the civil cover sheet to show a commercial, not a residential
foreclosure, in violation of F.S. 92.525, Verification of documents (and in violation of Rule
2.515, Signature and Certificates of Attorneys). I raised this issue by letter Dec-24-2014 to
Greg Harrel, the Clerks Counsel to no avail, see attached.
3. Ms. Parsons false verification mislead the Clerk to file case as a commercial foreclosure and
not a residential foreclosure, a violation of F.S. 837.06, False Official Statements, attached.

4. Ms. Parsons did not file with the Clerk the Original Promissory Note showing a clear chain
of all endorsements, transfers, or assignments of the promissory note that is the subject of the
action. Mr. Wilson did not file with the Clerk the Original Promissory Note.
5. The Original Promissory Note is not filed with the Clerk in violation of F.S. 702.015
Elements of complaint; lost, destroyed, or stolen note affidavit.
6. The Original Promissory Note is not filed with the Clerk in violation of Rule 1.115 Pleading
Mortgage Foreclosures.
7. The Original Promissory Note is not filed with the Clerk by either Ms. Parsons or Mr.
Wilson SHOWING STANDING TO SUE ME!
Mr. Wilson repeated the foregoing, and more, with a number of Notice of Actions filed as
recently as January 19, 2016.
The record shows Mr. Wilson has been knowing using false or wrong addresses for parties
because the mail is being returned by the US Post office. The record shows there are no real trust
parties in this case, and no real unknown parties in this case. Apparently the Plaintiffs sued the
wrong parties.
My case does not appear in Order #A2015-24 - Backlog Foreclosure Program, showing my case
was singled out for denial of rights under color of law. Also see attached,

Elements of complaint; lost, destroyed, or stolen note affidavit.
(1) The Legislature intends that this section expedite the foreclosure process by ensuring initial disclosure
of a plaintiffs status and the facts supporting that status, thereby ensuring the availability of documents
necessary to the prosecution of the case.
(2) A complaint that seeks to foreclose a mortgage or other lien on residential real property, including
individual units of condominiums and cooperatives, designed principally for occupation by from one to four
families which secures a promissory note must:
(a) Contain affirmative allegations expressly made by the plaintiff at the time the proceeding is
commenced that the plaintiff is the holder of the original note secured by the mortgage; or
(b) Allege with specificity the factual basis by which the plaintiff is a person entitled to enforce the note
under s. 673.3011.
(3) If a plaintiff has been delegated the authority to institute a mortgage foreclosure action on behalf of
the person entitled to enforce the note, the complaint shall describe the authority of the plaintiff and identify,
with specificity, the document that grants the plaintiff the authority to act on behalf of the person entitled to
enforce the note. This subsection is intended to require initial disclosure of status and pertinent facts and not
to modify law regarding standing or real parties in interest. The term original note or original promissory
note means the signed or executed promissory note rather than a copy thereof. The term includes any
renewal, replacement, consolidation, or amended and restated note or instrument given in renewal,
replacement, or substitution for a previous promissory note. The term also includes a transferable record, as
defined by the Uniform Electronic Transaction Act in s. 668.50(16).
(4) If the plaintiff is in possession of the original promissory note, the plaintiff must file under penalty of
perjury a certification with the court, contemporaneously with the filing of the complaint for foreclosure, that
the plaintiff is in possession of the original promissory note. The certification must set forth the location of the
note, the name and title of the individual giving the certification, the name of the person who personally
verified such possession, and the time and date on which the possession was verified. Correct copies of the
note and all allonges to the note must be attached to the certification. The original note and the allonges
must be filed with the court before the entry of any judgment of foreclosure or judgment on the note.
(5) If the plaintiff seeks to enforce a lost, destroyed, or stolen instrument, an affidavit executed under
penalty of perjury must be attached to the complaint. The affidavit must:
(a) Detail a clear chain of all endorsements, transfers, or assignments of the promissory note that is the
subject of the action.
(b) Set forth facts showing that the plaintiff is entitled to enforce a lost, destroyed, or stolen instrument
pursuant to s. 673.3091. Adequate protection as required under s. 673.3091(2) shall be provided before the
entry of final judgment.
(c) Include as exhibits to the affidavit such copies of the note and the allonges to the note, audit reports

showing receipt of the original note, or other evidence of the acquisition, ownership, and possession of the
note as may be available to the plaintiff.
(6) The court may sanction the plaintiff for failure to comply with this section.
(7) This section does not apply to any foreclosure proceeding involving timeshare interests under part III of
chapter 721.

The amendments are attached in the full-page (Appendix A) and twocolumn (Appendix B) formats. Chapter 2013-137, Laws of Florida, is attached as
Appendix C. The reasons for the amendments are as follows:
Rule 1.110. The last two paragraphs of subdivision (b) regarding pleading
requirements for foreclosure actions have been deleted and added to new Form
1.115, Pleading Mortgage Foreclosures.

Rule 1.115. This new rule has been created to govern pleading requirements
in mortgage foreclosure actions. The new rule incorporates the requirements of
section 702.015, Florida Statutes, as created by section 3, Chapter 2013-137, Laws
of Florida. Rule 1.115(a) incorporates specifically the requirements of section
702.015(2), Florida Statutes, as created by section 3, Chapter 2013-137, Laws of
Florida. Subdivision (b) incorporates the requirements of section 702.015(3),
Florida Statutes, as created by section 3, Chapter 2013-137, Laws of Florida, for
pleading when the claimant is acting on behalf of the person entitled to enforce the
note. Subdivision (c) governs procedures if the claimant is in possession of the
original promissory note. It is based on section 702.015(4), Florida Statutes, as
created by section 3, Chapter 2013-137, Florida Statutes. Subdivision (d) governs
procedures when the note is lost, stolen, or destroyed. It is based on section
702.015(5), Florida Statutes, as created by section 3, Chapter 2013-137, Laws of
Florida. Subdivision (e) adds requirements for a standard verification in an action
to foreclose a mortgage.
Form 1.944(a). Existing Form 1.994 has been amended to apply only to
Complaints for Foreclosure when the location of the note is known. New Form
1.944(b) governs complaints when the location of the original note is not known.
Item 3 of the form addresses the issue of delegated authority to institute a
mortgage foreclosure action. See section 702.015(3), Florida Statutes, as created
by section 3, Chapter 2013-137, Laws of Florida.
The certification of possession of original note is required by section
702.015(4), as created by section 3, Chapter 2013-137, Laws of Florida.
The verification was added to conform to the language in Rule 1.110(b)
(which is being moved to Rule 1.115).
Form 1.944(b). This new form is a complaint for a mortgage foreclosure
when the location of the original note is unknown. See section 701.015(5), as
created by section 3, Chapter 2013-137, Laws of Florida. The form is based on
existing Form 1.994, but meets the additional requirements for a complaint when a
note is lost, stolen, or destroyed. The form also meets the requirements of section
673.3091, Florida Statutes, Enforcement of lost, stolen, or destroyed instrument.
Form 1.944(c). This new form is a motion for an order to show cause if the
defendant fails to respond. It is authorized by section 702.10, Florida Statutes, as
amended by section 6, Chapter 2013-137, Laws of Florida.
2

Form 1.944(d). This new form is an order to show cause, to be issued


following the filing of a motion for an order to show cause, proposed Form
1.944(c). It is authorized by section 702.10, Florida Statutes, as amended by
section 6, Chapter 2013-137, Laws of Florida.
Form 1.996(a). The existing Final Judgment of Foreclosure form has been
renumbered and updated by adding section titles and provisions regarding
attorneys fees.
Form 1.996(b). This new form creates a final judgment of foreclosure for
reestablishment of a lost note. See section 702.015(5), Florida Statutes, as created
by section 3, Chapter 2013-137, Laws of Florida. The form is based on existing
Form 1.996, but adds additional requirements for lost of stolen notes. See, e.g.,
item 8 and section 673.3091, Florida Statutes.
Form 1.996(c). Existing Form 1.996(b) has been renumbered as Form
1.996(c) because of creation of new Form 1.996(b). Style changes have also been
made to this form.
The Civil Procedure Rules Committee respectfully requests that the Court
amend the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure as outlined in this report.

Respectfully submitted December 16, 2013.

(b) Claims for Relief. A pleading which sets forth a claim for relief, whether an original claim, counterclaim, crossclaim, or
third-party claim must state a cause of action and shall contain (1) a short and plain statement of the grounds upon which the court's
jurisdiction depends, unless the court already has jurisdiction and the claim needs no new grounds of jurisdiction to support it, (2) a
short and plain statement of the ultimate facts showing that the pleader is entitled to relief, and (3) a demand for judgment for the

declaratory relief actions, or trust supervision. When any subsequent proceeding results in a pleading in the strict technical sense
under rule 1.100(a), response by opposing parties will follow in the same course as though the new pleading were the initial pleading
in the action. The time for answering and authority for defenses under rule 1.140 will apply. The last sentence exempts post judgment
motions under rules 1.480(c), 1.530, and 1.540, and similar proceedings from its purview.
2014 Amendment. The last two paragraphs of rule 1.110(b) regarding pleading requirements for certain mortgage foreclosure
actions were deleted and incorporated in new rule 1.115.
RULE 1.115. PLEADING MORTGAGE FORECLOSURES
(a) Claim for Relief. A claim for relief that seeks to foreclose a mortgage or other lien on residential real property, including
individual units of condominiums and cooperatives designed principally for occupation by one to four families which secures a
promissory note, must: (1) contain affirmative allegations expressly made by the claimant at the time the proceeding is commenced
that the claimant is the holder of the original note secured by the mortgage; or (2) allege with specificity the factual basis by which
the claimant is a person entitled to enforce the note under section 673.3011, Florida Statutes.
(b) Delegated Claim for Relief. If a claimant has been delegated the authority to institute a mortgage foreclosure action on behalf
of the person entitled to enforce the note, the claim for relief shall describe the authority of the claimant and identify with specificity
the document that grants the claimant the authority to act on behalf of the person entitled to enforce the note. The term original
note or original promissory note means the signed or executed promissory note rather than a copy of it. The term includes any
renewal, replacement, consolidation, or amended and restated note or instrument given in renewal, replacement, or substitution for a
previous promissory note. The term also includes a transferrable record, as defined by the Uniform Electronic Transaction Act in
section 668.50(16), Florida Statutes.
(c) Possession of Original Promissory Note. If the claimant is in possession of the original promissory note, the claimant must file
under penalty of perjury a certification contemporaneously with the filing of the claim for relief for foreclosure that the claimant is in
possession of the original promissory note. The certification must set forth the location of the note, the name and title of the
individual giving the certification, the name of the person who personally verified such possession, and the time and date on which
the possession was verified. Correct copies of the note and all allonges to the note must be attached to the certification. The original
note and the allonges must be filed with the court before the entry of any judgment of foreclosure or judgment on the note.
(d) Lost, Destroyed, or Stolen Instrument. If the claimant seeks to enforce a lost, destroyed, or stolen instrument, an affidavit
executed under penalty of perjury must be attached to the claim for relief. The affidavit must: (1) detail a clear chain of all
endorsements, transfers, or assignments of the promissory note that is the subject of the action; (2) set forth facts showing that the
claimant is entitled to enforce a lost, destroyed, or stolen instrument pursuant to section 673.3091, Florida Statutes; and (3) include
as exhibits to the affidavit such copies of the note and the allonges to the note, audit reports showing receipt of the original note, or
other evidence of the acquisition, ownership, and possession of the note as may be available to the claimant. Adequate protection as
required under section 673.3091(2), Florida Statutes, shall be provided before the entry of final judgment.
(e) Verification. When filing an action for foreclosure on a mortgage for residential real property the claim for relief shall be verified
by the claimant seeking to foreclose the mortgage. When verification of a document is required, the document filed shall include an
oath, affirmation, or the following statement:
Under penalties of perjury, I declare that I have read the foregoing, and the facts alleged therein are true and correct to the best of
my knowledge and belief.

2014 Adoption. This form is designed to comply with section 702.10, Florida Statutes (2013).
FORM 1.944(d) ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE
ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE
THIS CAUSE has come before the court on ..plaintiffs/lien holders.. motion for order to show cause for entry of final judgment of
mortgage foreclosure and the court having reviewed the motion and the verified complaint, and being otherwise fully advised in the
circumstances, finds and it is
ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that:
1. The defendant(s) shall appear at a hearing on foreclosure on ..(date).. at ...(time).. before the undersigned judge, in the
..(county).. Courthouse at ..(address).., to show cause why the attached final judgment of foreclosure should not be entered
against the defendant(s) in this cause. This hearing referred to in this order is a show cause hearing.
2. This ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE shall be served on the defendant(s) in accordance with the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure and
applicable law as follows:
a. If the defendant(s) has/have been served under Chapter 48, Florida Statutes, with the verified complaint and original process has
already been effectuated, service of this order may be made in the manner provided in the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure; or, if the
other party is the plaintiff in the action, service of the order to show cause on that party may be made in the manner provided in the
Florida Rules of Civil Procedure.
b. If the defendant(s) has/have not been served under Chapter 48, Florida Statutes, with the verified complaint and original process,
the order to show cause, together with the summons and a copy of the verified complaint, shall be served on the party in the same
manner as provided by law for original process.
3. The filing of defenses by a motion or verified answer at or before the show cause hearing constitutes cause for which the court may
not enter the attached final judgment.
4. Defendant(s) has/have the right to file affidavits or other papers at the time of the show cause hearing and may appear at the
hearing personally or by an attorney.
5. If defendant(s) file(s) motions, they may be considered at the time of the show cause hearing.
6. Defendant(s) failure to appear either in person or by an attorney at the show cause hearing or to file defenses by motion or by a
verified or sworn answer, affidavits, or other papers which raise a genuine issue of material fact which would preclude entry of
summary judgment or which would otherwise constitute a legal defense to foreclosure, after being served as provided by law with the
order to show cause, will be deemed presumptively a waiver of the right to a hearing. In such case, the court may enter a final
judgment of foreclosure ordering the clerk of the court to conduct a foreclosure sale. An order requiring defendant(s) to vacate the
premises may also be entered.
7. If the mortgage provides for reasonable attorneys fees and the requested fee does not exceed 3% of the principal amount owed at
the time the complaint is filed, the court may not need to hold a hearing to adjudge the requested fee to be reasonable.
8. Any final judgment of foreclosure entered under section 702.10(1) Florida Statutes, shall be only for in rem relief; however, entry
of such final judgment of foreclosure shall not preclude entry of an in personam money damages judgment or deficiency judgment
where otherwise allowed by law.

to be heard at the show cause hearing.

according to the rolls of the latest assessment by the county property appraiser.

explained herein).

Judge
NOTE: Paragraph 1 must be varied in accordance with the items unpaid, claimed, and proven. The form does not provide for an
adjudication of junior lienors claims nor for redemption by the United States of America if it is a defendant. The address of the person
who claims a lien as a result of the judgment must be included in the judgment in order for the judgment to become a lien on real
estate when a certified copy of the judgment is recorded. Alternatively, an affidavit with this information may be simultaneously
recorded. For the specific requirements, see section 55.10(1), Florida Statutes; Hott Interiors, Inc. v. Fostock, 721 So. 2d 1236 (Fla.
4th DCA 1998).

Committee Notes
1980 Amendment. The reference to writs of assistance in paragraph 7 is changed to writs of possession to comply with the
consolidation of the 2 writs.
2010 Amendment. Mandatory statements of the mortgagee/property owners rights are included as required by the 2006
amendment to section 45.031, Florida Statutes. Changes are also made based on 2008 amendments to section 45.031, Florida
Statutes, permitting courts to order sale by electronic means.
Additional changes were made to bring the form into compliance with chapters 718 and 720 and section 45.0315, Florida Statutes,
and to better align the form with existing practices of clerks and practitioners. The breakdown of the amounts due is now set out in
column format to simplify calculations. The requirement that the form include the address and social security number of all defendants
was eliminated to protect the privacy interests of those defendants and in recognition of the fact that this form of judgment does not
create a personal final money judgment against the defendant borrower, but rather an in rem judgment against the property. The
address and social security number of the defendant borrower should be included in any deficiency judgment later obtained against
the defendant borrower.
2014 Amendment. These amendments added titles, updated statutory reference to time for right of redemption, and added a
paragraph on attorneys fees.

court has found that there are reduction or enhancement factors to be applied, then such factors must be identified and explained

IN RE: AMENDMENTS TO THE FLORIDA RULES OF CIVIL


PROCEDURE.
[January 14, 2016]
PER CURIAM.
This matter is before the Court for consideration of proposed amendments to
the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure. We have jurisdiction. See art. V, 2(a), Fla.
Const.
BACKGROUND
The Civil Procedure Rules Committee (Committee) filed a fast-track outof-cycle report, pursuant to Florida Rule of Judicial Administration 2.140(e),
proposing amendments to the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure in response to
legislative changes. In its report, the Committee proposed amendments to Florida
Rule of Civil Procedure 1.110 and forms 1.944, 1.996(a), and 1.996(b). The
Committee also proposed new rule 1.115 and several new forms. The amended
and new rules and forms were proposed in response to legislation regarding

mortgage foreclosure actions. Chapter 2013-137, Laws of Florida, created section


702.015, Florida Statutes. This statutory provision sets forth pleading
requirements for mortgage foreclosure complaints intended to expedite the
foreclosure process by ensuring initial disclosure of a plaintiffs status and the facts
supporting that status, thereby ensuring the availability of documents necessary to
the prosecution of the case. 702.015(1), Fla. Stat. (2015). Chapter 2013-137
also amended section 702.10, Florida Statutes, relating to orders to show cause
why a judgment of foreclosure should not be entered and hearings thereon. Ch.
2013-137, 6, Laws of Fla. The legislation became effective on June 7, 2013. Ch.
2013-137, 10, Laws of Fla. The act further specified that the pleading
requirements apply to cases filed on or after July 1, 2013, and the new show cause
provisions apply to cases pending on the effective date of the act. Ch. 2013-137,
8, Laws of Fla. Finally, the act requested that the Court amend the Florida Rules
of Civil Procedure to provide expedited foreclosure proceedings in conformity
with this act and . . . develop and publish forms for use in such expedited
proceedings. Ch. 2013-173, 9, Laws of Fla.
Upon consideration of the Committees report and proposals, on December
11, 2014, the Court issued an opinion adopting the proposals and providing a sixtyday comment period. In re Amends. to Fla. R. Civ. P., 153 So. 3d 258 (Fla. 2014).
Multiple comments were filed, and the Committee filed a response proposing

-2-

several additional amendments to the rules and forms. Upon consideration of the
comments filed and the Committees response, we adopt the additional
amendments described below.
AMENDMENTS
Rule 1.115 (Pleading Mortgage Foreclosures). Rule 1.115 specifically
governs pleading requirements in foreclosure actions. The rule incorporates the
requirements of section 702.015, Florida Statutes, detailing pleading requirements
where the plaintiff is the holder of the original note secured by the mortgage,
where the plaintiff has been delegated authority to institute an action on behalf of
another who is entitled to enforce the note, and where the plaintiff seeks to enforce
a lost, destroyed, or stolen note. 702.015, Fla. Stat. (2015).
Rule 1.115 as it was proposed by the Committee and adopted by the Court
closely tracks the language of this statute. The comments filed raised a number of
issues with regard to the rule, two with which the Committee agrees. First, the
Committee agrees that the first sentence of subdivision (a) of the rule be amended
to clarify that the rule is intended to govern foreclosure of a mortgage or lien that is
secured by a promissory note on residential real property. Because this provides
further clarity in the rule, we adopt this amendment.
The Committee also agrees with comments suggesting that subdivision (d)
of the rule be amended to add a reference to section 702.11, Florida Statutes, for

-3-

completeness and clarity of the adequate protections which must be provided


before entry of judgment. Subdivision (d) of the rule addresses lost, destroyed, or
stolen instruments. In such cases the claimant is required to provide adequate
protection against loss that might occur by reason of a claim by another person
to enforce the instrument. 673.3091(2), Fla. Stat. (2015). Section 702.11,
Florida Statutes, also addresses adequate protection for lost, destroyed, or stolen
notes in mortgage foreclosure and lists the acceptable reasonable means of
providing adequate protection, if so found by the court. 702.11(1), Fla. Stat.
(2015). Accordingly, because both sections 673.3091(2) and 702.11(1) are
important provisions regarding adequate protections, we adopt the amendment to
subdivision (d) as proposed by the Committee.
Form 1.944(a) (Mortgage Foreclosure). This form is to be used only in
mortgage foreclosure cases where the location of the original note is known. The
form addresses the issues of delegated authority to institute a mortgage foreclosure
action and certification of possession of the original note. As with new rule 1.115,
the amendments that were made to this form closely follow the requirements for
pleading set forth in section 702.015, Florida Statutes (2015). Several comments
were received raising several issues. In response to the comments, the Committee
has proposed amending paragraph (3)(c) of this form and adding a new paragraph
(3)(d). The amendments provide separate choices where the delegated authority to

-4-

institute the action comes from the holder of the original note and where it comes
from one who is not the holder but who is otherwise entitled to enforce the note.
Because this would provide further clarity, we adopt these amendments to form
1.944(a) as proposed by the Committee.
Form 1.944(b) (Mortgage Foreclosure). This mortgage foreclosure
complaint form is for use in mortgage foreclosure cases where the location of the
original note is unknown. It incorporates the pleading requirements for such cases
set forth in section 702.015(5), Florida Statutes (2015). It also incorporates the
requirements of section 673.3091 (Enforcement of lost, destroyed, or stolen
instrument). In response to the comments filed with regard to form 1.944(b), the
Committee has proposed several amendments. The Committee has also
recommended several other amendments for consistency between forms 1.944(a)
and (b). Consistency between these forms is desirable, given that they are both
mortgage foreclosure complaint forms intended to implement the applicable
statute. We adopt the amendments as proposed by the Committee.
Form 1.944(c) (Motion for Order to Show Cause) and Form 1.944(d)
(Order to Show Cause). Form 1.944(c) is a motion for an order to show cause for
entry of final judgment of foreclosure. Form 1.944(d) is an order to show cause to
be issued following the filing of the motion for an order to show cause. These
forms are meant to be used in proceedings under section 702.10, Florida Statutes

-5-

(2015). The Committee agrees with comments filed suggesting that paragraph 7 of
form 1.944(c) and paragraph 10 of form 1.944(d), referring to homestead status,
should be deleted. We adopt the amendments to form 1.944(c) and (d) as proposed
by the Committee in response to the comments.
CONCLUSION
Accordingly, the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure and forms are hereby
amended as set forth in the appendix to this opinion.1 New language is indicated
by underscoring; deletions are indicated by struck-through type. The amendments
shall take effect immediately upon the release of this opinion.
It is so ordered.
LABARGA, C.J., and PARIENTE, LEWIS, QUINCE, CANADY, POLSTON,
and PERRY, JJ., concur.
THE FILING OF A MOTION FOR REHEARING SHALL NOT ALTER THE
EFFECTIVE DATE OF THESE AMENDMENTS.

FORM 1.944(d). ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE


ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE
THIS CAUSE has come before the court on .....plaintiffs/lien holders..... motion for
order to show cause for entry of final judgment of mortgage foreclosure and the court having
reviewed the motion and the verified complaint, and being otherwise fully advised in the
circumstances, finds and it is
ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that:
1.
The defendant(s) shall appear at a hearing on foreclosure on .....(date)..... at .....
(time) ..... before the undersigned judge, in the ..(county).. Courthouse at ..(address)..,
to show cause why the attached final judgment of foreclosure should not be entered against the
defendant(s) in this cause. This hearing referred to in this order is a show cause hearing.
2.
This ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE shall be served on the defendant(s) in
accordance with the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure and applicable law as follows:
a.
If the defendant(s) has/have been served under Chapter 48, Florida
Statutes, with the verified complaint and original process has already been effectuated, service of
this order may be made in the manner provided in the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure; or, if the
other party is the plaintiff in the action, service of the order to show cause on that party may be
made in the manner provided in the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure.
b.
If the defendant(s) has/have not been served under Chapter 48, Florida
Statutes, with the verified complaint and original process, the order to show cause, together with
the summons and a copy of the verified complaint, shall be served on the party in the same
manner as provided by law for original process.
3.
The filing of defenses by a motion or verified answer at or before the show cause
hearing constitutes cause for which the court may not enter the attached final judgment.
4.
Defendant(s) has/have the right to file affidavits or other papers at the time of the
show cause hearing and may appear at the hearing personally or by an attorney.
5.
If defendant(s) file(s) motions, they may be considered at the time of the show
cause hearing.
6.
Defendant(s) failure to appear either in person or by an attorney at the show
cause hearing or to file defenses by motion or by a verified or sworn answer, affidavits, or other
papers which raise a genuine issue of material fact which would preclude entry of summary
judgment or which would otherwise constitute a legal defense to foreclosure, after being served
as provided by law with the order to show cause, will be deemed presumptively a waiver of the
right to a hearing. In such case, the court may enter a final judgment of foreclosure ordering the

- 19 -

clerk of the court to conduct a foreclosure sale. An order requiring defendant(s) to vacate the

credit plaintiffs bid with the total sum with interest and costs accruing subsequent to this
judgment, or such part of it as is necessary to pay the bid in full.

7.

Attorneys Fees.

[If a default judgment has been entered against the mortgagor]


Because a default judgment has been entered against the mortgagor and because the fees
requested do not exceed 3 percent of the principal amount owed at the time the complaint was
filed, it is not necessary for the Court to hold a hearing or adjudge the requested attorneys' fees to
be reasonable.
[If no default judgment has been entered against the mortgagor]
The Court finds, based upon the affidavits/testimony presented and upon inquiry of
counsel for the Plaintiff that ___ hours were reasonably expended by Plaintiff's counsel and that
an hourly rate of $______ is appropriate. Plaintiff's counsel represents that the attorney fee
awarded does not exceed its contract fee with the Plaintiff. The Court finds that there are/are no
reduction or enhancement factors for consideration by the Court pursuant to Florida Patient
Compensation Fund v. Rowe, 472 So.2d 1145 (Fla. 1985). (If the Court has found that there are

- 22 -

reduction or enhancement factors to be applied, then such factors must be identified and
explained herein).
[If the fees to be awarded are a flat fee]
The requested attorneys fees are a flat rate fee that the firms client has agreed to pay in
this matter. Given the amount of the fee requested and the labor expended, the Court finds that a
lodestar analysis is not necessary and that the flat fee is reasonable.
8.
Re-establishment of Lost Note. The court finds that the plaintiff has reestablished the terms of the lost note and established its right to enforce the instrument as
required by law. Plaintiff shall hold the defendant(s) maker of the note harmless and shall
indemnify defendant(s) for any loss Defendant(s) may incur by reason of a claim by any other
person to enforce the lost note. Adequate protection has been provided as required by law by the
following means: .. (Identify means of security per applicable law: a written indemnification
agreement, a surety bond, include specific detail)...
Judgment is hereby entered in favor of the plaintiff as to its request to enforce the lost
note.
9.
Jurisdiction Retained. Jurisdiction of this action is retained to enforce the
adequate protection ordered and to enter further orders that are proper including, without
limitation, a deficiency judgment.
IF THIS PROPERTY IS SOLD AT PUBLIC AUCTION, THERE MAY BE ADDITIONAL
MONEY FROM THE SALE AFTER PAYMENT OF PERSONS WHO ARE ENTITLED
TO BE PAID FROM THE SALE PROCEEDS PURSUANT TO THE FINAL JUDGMENT.
IF YOU ARE A SUBORDINATE LIENHOLDER CLAIMING A RIGHT TO FUNDS
REMAINING AFTER THE SALE, YOU MUST FILE A CLAIM WITH THE CLERK NO
LATER THAN 60 DAYS AFTER THE SALE. IF YOU FAIL TO FILE A CLAIM, YOU
WILL NOT BE ENTITLED TO ANY REMAINING FUNDS.
[If the property being foreclosed on has qualified for the homestead tax exemption in the most
recent approved tax roll, the final judgment shall additionally contain the following statement in
conspicuous type:]
IF YOU ARE THE PROPERTY OWNER, YOU MAY CLAIM THESE FUNDS
YOURSELF. YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO HAVE A LAWYER OR ANY OTHER

RE: Clerks duty and the civil cover sheet (form 1.997), Rule 1.100(c)(2).
Reverse Mortgage Solutions, Inc. vs. Neil J. Gillespie, et al., Case No. 13-115-CAT
Dear Mr. Harrell:
You emailed me December 09, 2014 at 4:59 PM about the civil cover sheet (form 1.997):
-The case was designated as a commercial foreclosure by plaintiff's counsel in the civil
cover sheet that the plaintiff is responsible for preparing and filing at the outset of the
case. You will need to take the matter up with the court and/or the plaintiff however you
deem appropriate if you dispute the plaintiff's characterization of the case, as the Clerk
has no say in that.
Mr. Harrell, under Rule 1.100(c)(2) ...all proceedings in the action shall be abated until a
properly executed cover sheet is completed and filed.... This is the Clerks duty, see
Rule 1.100(c)(2) Pleadings and Motions.
(2) A civil cover sheet (form 1.997) shall be completed and filed with the clerk at the
time an initial complaint or petition is filed by the party initiating the action. If the cover
sheet is not filed, the clerk shall accept the complaint or petition for filing; but all
proceedings in the action shall be abated until a properly executed cover sheet is
completed and filed. The clerk shall complete the civil cover sheet for a party appearing
pro se.
Currently the civil cover sheet (form 1.997) is not properly executed as completed and filed.
The Clerk has a ministerial duty under Rule 1.100(c)(2), ...all proceedings in the action shall be
abated until a properly executed cover sheet is completed and filed..
When can I expect the Clerk to fulfill its ministerial duties under Rule 1.100(c)(2)?
Sincerely,

Neil J. Gillespie

RULE 1.100

FLORIDA RULES OF CIVIL PROCEDURE

such; an answer to a crossclaim if the answer contains


a crossclaim; a third-party complaint if a person who
was not an original party is summoned as a third-party
defendant; and a third-party answer if a third-party
complaint is served. If an answer or third-party answer contains an affirmative defense and the opposing
party seeks to avoid it, the opposing party shall file
a reply containing the avoidance. No other pleadings
shall be allowed.
(b) Motions. An application to the court for an order shall be by motion which shall be made in writing
unless made during a hearing or trial, shall state with
particularity the grounds therefor, and shall set forth
the relief or order sought. The requirement of writing
is fulfilled if the motion is stated in a written notice of
the hearing of the motion. All notices of hearing shall
specify each motion or other matter to be heard.
(c) Caption.
(1) Every pleading, motion, order, judgment, or
other paper shall have a caption containing the name
of the court, the file number, the name of the first party
on each side with an appropriate indication of other
parties, and a designation identifying the party filing
it and its nature or the nature of the order, as the case
may be. All papers filed in the action shall be styled in
such a manner as to indicate clearly the subject matter of the paper and the party requesting or obtaining
relief.1
(2) A civil cover sheet (form 1.997) shall be completed and filed with the clerk at the time an initial
complaint or petition is filed by the party initiating the
action. If the cover sheet is not filed, the clerk shall
accept the complaint or petition for filing; but all proceedings in the action shall be abated until a properly
executed cover sheet is completed and filed. The clerk
shall complete the civil cover sheet for a party appearing pro se.
(3) A final disposition form (form 1.998) shall be
filed with the clerk by the prevailing party at the time
of the filing of the order or judgment which disposes of
the action. If the action is settled without a court order
or judgment being entered, or dismissed by the parties, the plaintiff or petitioner immediately shall file
a final disposition form (form 1.998) with the clerk.

RULE 1.110

The clerk shall complete the final disposition form for


a party appearing pro se, or when the action is dismissed by court order for lack of prosecution pursuant
to rule 1.420(e).
(d) Motion in Lieu of Scire Facias. Any relief
available by scire facias may be granted on motion
after notice without the issuance of a writ of scire
facias.

E.g., Order Denying Plaintiffs Motion for Summary Judgment, Defendants Motion to Compel, Order Denying Defendants Motion to Dismiss, Final Judgment for Plaintiff, etc.

Committee Notes
1971 Amendment. The change requires a more complete designation of the document that is filed so that it may be more rapidly
identified. It also specifies the applicability of the subdivision to all
of the various documents that can be filed. For example, a motion to
dismiss should now be entitled defendants motion to dismiss the
complaint rather than merely motion or motion to dismiss.
1972 Amendment. Subdivision (a) is amended to make a reply
mandatory when a party seeks to avoid an affirmative defense in
an answer or third-party answer. It is intended to eliminate thereby
the problems exemplified by Tuggle v. Maddox, 60 So. 2d 158 (Fla.
1952), and Dickerson v. Orange State Oil Co., 123 So. 2d 562 (Fla.
2d DCA 1960).
1992 Amendment. Subdivision (b) is amended to require all
notices of hearing to specify the motions or other matters to be
heard.

RULE 1.110. GENERAL RULES OF


PLEADING
(a) Forms of Pleadings. Forms of action and technical forms for seeking relief and of pleas, pleadings,
or motions are abolished.
(b) Claims for Relief. A pleading which sets forth
a claim for relief, whether an original claim, counter
claim, crossclaim, or third-party claim, must state a
cause of action and shall contain (1) a short and plain
statement of the grounds upon which the courts jurisdiction depends, unless the court already has jurisdiction and the claim needs no new grounds of jurisdiction to support it, (2) a short and plain statement of the
ultimate facts showing that the pleader is entitled to
relief, and (3) a demand for judgment for the relief to

(b) Enlargement. When an act is required or allowed to be done at or
within a specified time by order of court, by these rules, or by notice given
thereunder, for cause shown the court at any time in its discretion (1) with or
without notice, may order the period enlarged if request therefor is made before the
expiration of the period originally prescribed or as extended by a previous order, or
(2) upon motion made and notice after the expiration of the specified period, may
permit the act to be done when failure to act was the result of excusable neglect,
but it may not extend the time for making a motion for new trial, for rehearing, or

PLEADINGS AND MOTIONS

Florida Rules of Civil Procedure

20

(a) Pleadings. There shall be a complaint or, when so designated by a


statute or rule, a petition, and an answer to it; an answer to a counterclaim
denominated as such; an answer to a crossclaim if the answer contains a
crossclaim; a third-party complaint if a person who was not an original party is
summoned as a third-party defendant; and a third-party answer if a third-party
complaint is served. If an answer or third-party answer contains an affirmative
defense and the opposing party seeks to avoid it, the opposing party shall file a
reply containing the avoidance. No other pleadings shall be allowed.
(b) Motions. An application to the court for an order shall be by motion
which shall be made in writing unless made during a hearing or trial, shall state
with particularity the grounds therefor, and shall set forth the relief or order sought.
The requirement of writing is fulfilled if the motion is stated in a written notice of
the hearing of the motion. All notices of hearing shall specify each motion or other
matter to be heard.
(c)

Caption.

(1) Every pleading, motion, order, judgment, or other paper shall


have a caption containing the name of the court, the file number, and except for in
rem proceedings, including forfeiture proceedings, the name of the first party on
each side with an appropriate indication of other parties, and a designation
identifying the party filing it and its nature or the nature of the order, as the case
may be. In any in rem proceeding, every pleading, motion, order, judgment, or
other paper shall have a caption containing the name of the court, the file number,
the style In re (followed by the name or general description of the property), and
a designation of the person or entity filing it and its nature or the nature of the
order, as the case may be. In an in rem forfeiture proceeding, the style shall be In

with the clerk at the time an initial complaint or petition is filed by the party
initiating the action. If the cover sheet is not filed, the clerk shall accept the
complaint or petition for filing; but all proceedings in the action shall be abated
until a properly executed cover sheet is completed and filed. The clerk shall
complete the civil cover sheet for a party appearing pro se.

March 16, 2015

Florida Rules of Civil Procedure

21

(3) A final disposition form (form 1.998) shall be filed with the
clerk by the prevailing party at the time of the filing of the order or judgment
which disposes of the action. If the action is settled without a court order or
judgment being entered, or dismissed by the parties, the plaintiff or petitioner
immediately shall file a final disposition form (form 1.998) with the clerk. The
clerk shall complete the final disposition form for a party appearing pro se, or
when the action is dismissed by court order for lack of prosecution pursuant to rule
1.420(e).
(d) Motion in Lieu of Scire Facias. Any relief available by scire facias
may be granted on motion after notice without the issuance of a writ of scire facias.
Committee Notes
1971 Amendment. The change requires a more complete designation of the document that is filed so that it
may be more rapidly identified. It also specifies the applicability of the subdivision to all of the various documents
that can be filed. For example, a motion to dismiss should now be entitled defendants motion to dismiss the
complaint rather than merely motion or motion to dismiss.
1972 Amendment. Subdivision (a) is amended to make a reply mandatory when a party seeks to avoid an
affirmative defense in an answer or third-party answer. It is intended to eliminate thereby the problems exemplified
by Tuggle v. Maddox, 60 So. 2d 158 (Fla. 1952), and Dickerson
So. 2d 562 (Fla. 2d DCA 1960).

v. Orange State Oil Co., 123

1992 Amendment. Subdivision (b) is amended to require all notices of hearing to specify the motions or
other matters to be heard.
2010 Amendment. Subdivision (c) is amended to address separately the caption for in rem proceedings,
including in rem forfeiture proceedings.

RULE 1.110.

GENERAL RULES OF PLEADING

(a) Forms of Pleadings. Forms of action and technical forms for seeking
relief and of pleas, pleadings, or motions are abolished.
(b) Claims for Relief. A pleading which sets forth a claim for relief,
whether an original claim, counterclaim, crossclaim, or third-party claim, must
state a cause of action and shall contain (1) a short and plain statement of the
grounds upon which the courts jurisdiction depends, unless the court already has
jurisdiction and the claim needs no new grounds of jurisdiction to support it, (2) a
short and plain statement of the ultimate facts showing that the pleader is entitled
to relief, and (3) a demand for judgment for the relief to which the pleader deems
himself or herself entitled. Relief in the alternative or of several different types
may be demanded. Every complaint shall be considered to pray for general relief.
March 16, 2015

Florida Rules of Civil Procedure

22

(g) Joinder of Causes of Action; Consistency. A pleader may set up in


the same action as many claims or causes of action or defenses in the same right as
the pleader has, and claims for relief may be stated in the alternative if separate
items make up the cause of action, or if 2 or more causes of action are joined. A
party may also set forth 2 or more statements of a claim or defense alternatively,
either in 1 count or defense or in separate counts or defenses. When 2 or more
statements are made in the alternative and 1 of them, if made independently, would
be sufficient, the pleading is not made insufficient by the insufficiency of 1 or
more of the alternative statements. A party may also state as many separate claims
or defenses as that party has, regardless of consistency and whether based on legal
or equitable grounds or both. All pleadings shall be construed so as to do
substantial justice.
(h) Subsequent Pleadings. When the nature of an action permits
pleadings subsequent to final judgment and the jurisdiction of the court over the
parties has not terminated, the initial pleading subsequent to final judgment shall
be designated a supplemental complaint or petition. The action shall then proceed
in the same manner and time as though the supplemental complaint or petition
were the initial pleading in the action, including the issuance of any needed
process. This subdivision shall not apply to proceedings that may be initiated by
motion under these rules.
Committee Notes
1971 Amendment. Subdivision (h) is added to cover a situation usually arising in divorce judgment
modifications, supplemental declaratory relief actions, or trust supervision. When any subsequent proceeding results
in a pleading in the strict technical sense under rule 1.100(a), response by opposing parties will follow in the same
course as though the new pleading were the initial pleading in the action. The time for answering and authority for
defenses under rule 1.140 will apply. The last sentence exempts post judgment motions under rules 1.480(c), 1.530,
and 1.540, and similar proceedings from its purview.
2014 Amendment. The last two paragraphs of rule 1.110(b) regarding pleading requirements for certain
mortgage foreclosure actions were deleted and incorporated in new rule 1.115.

RULE 1.115.

PLEADING MORTGAGE FORECLOSURES

(a) Claim for Relief. A claim for relief that seeks to foreclose a mortgage
or other lien on residential real property, including individual units of
condominiums and cooperatives designed principally for occupation by one to four
families which secures a promissory note, must: (1) contain affirmative allegations
expressly made by the claimant at the time the proceeding is commenced that the
claimant is the holder of the original note secured by the mortgage; or (2) allege

March 16, 2015

Florida Rules of Civil Procedure

24

with specificity the factual basis by which the claimant is a person entitled to
enforce the note under section 673.3011, Florida Statutes.
(b) Delegated Claim for Relief. If a claimant has been delegated the
authority to institute a mortgage foreclosure action on behalf of the person entitled
to enforce the note, the claim for relief shall describe the authority of the claimant
and identify with specificity the document that grants the claimant the authority to
act on behalf of the person entitled to enforce the note. The term original note or
original promissory note means the signed or executed promissory note rather
than a copy of it. The term includes any renewal, replacement, consolidation, or
amended and restated note or instrument given in renewal, replacement, or
substitution for a previous promissory note. The term also includes a transferrable
record, as defined by the Uniform Electronic Transaction Act in section
668.50(16), Florida Statutes.
(c) Possession of Original Promissory Note. If the claimant is in
possession of the original promissory note, the claimant must file under penalty of
perjury a certification contemporaneously with the filing of the claim for relief for
foreclosure that the claimant is in possession of the original promissory note. The
certification must set forth the location of the note, the name and title of the
individual giving the certification, the name of the person who personally verified
such possession, and the time and date on which the possession was verified.
Correct copies of the note and all allonges to the note must be attached to the
certification. The original note and the allonges must be filed with the court before
the entry of any judgment of foreclosure or judgment on the note.
(d) Lost, Destroyed, or Stolen Instrument. If the claimant seeks to
enforce a lost, destroyed, or stolen instrument, an affidavit executed under penalty
of perjury must be attached to the claim for relief. The affidavit must: (1) detail a
clear chain of all endorsements, transfers, or assignments of the promissory note
that is the subject of the action; (2) set forth facts showing that the claimant is
entitled to enforce a lost, destroyed, or stolen instrument pursuant to section
673.3091, Florida Statutes; and (3) include as exhibits to the affidavit such copies
of the note and the allonges to the note, audit reports showing receipt of the
original note, or other evidence of the acquisition, ownership, and possession of the
note as may be available to the claimant. Adequate protection as required under
section 673.3091(2), Florida Statutes, shall be provided before the entry of final
judgment.

March 16, 2015

Florida Rules of Civil Procedure

25

(e) Verification. When filing an action for foreclosure on a mortgage for


residential real property the claim for relief shall be verified by the claimant
seeking to foreclose the mortgage. When verification of a document is required,
the document filed shall include an oath, affirmation, or the following statement:
Under penalties of perjury, I declare that I have read the foregoing, and the
facts alleged therein are true and correct to the best of my knowledge and belief.
RULE 1.120.

PLEADING SPECIAL MATTERS

(a) Capacity. It is not necessary to aver the capacity of a party to sue or


be sued, the authority of a party to sue or be sued in a representative capacity, or
the legal existence of an organized association of persons that is made a party,
except to the extent required to show the jurisdiction of the court. The initial
pleading served on behalf of a minor party shall specifically aver the age of the
minor party. When a party desires to raise an issue as to the legal existence of any
party, the capacity of any party to sue or be sued, or the authority of a party to sue
or be sued in a representative capacity, that party shall do so by specific negative
averment which shall include such supporting particulars as are peculiarly within
the pleaders knowledge.
(b) Fraud, Mistake, Condition of the Mind. In all averments of fraud or
mistake, the circumstances constituting fraud or mistake shall be stated with such
particularity as the circumstances may permit. Malice, intent, knowledge, mental
attitude, and other condition of mind of a person may be averred generally.
(c) Conditions Precedent. In pleading the performance or occurrence of
conditions precedent, it is sufficient to aver generally that all conditions precedent
have been performed or have occurred. A denial of performance or occurrence
shall be made specifically and with particularity.
(d) Official Document or Act. In pleading an official document or
official act it is sufficient to aver that the document was issued or the act done in
compliance with law.
(e) Judgment or Decree. In pleading a judgment or decree of a domestic
or foreign court, a judicial or quasi-judicial tribunal, or a board or officer, it is
sufficient to aver the judgment or decree without setting forth matter showing
jurisdiction to render it.

The Find a Lawyer directory is provided as a public service. The Florida Bar maintains limited basic information about attorneys licensed to practice in the state (e.g., name, address, year of
birth, gender, law schools attended, admission year). However, through this directory The Florida Bar allows individual attorneys the opportunity to provide for public information certain
expanded personal and professional data. It is the attorney's responsibility to routinely review and update those expanded listings. The information contained in those expanded listings is
presented by the Bar "as is" with no warranty of any kind, express or implied. The Florida Bar, its Board of Governors, employees, and agents thereof are not responsible for the accuracy of
that additional data. Publication of attorneys' contact information within this listing should not be construed as their consent to receive unsolicited communications in any form. Certain

The Find a Lawyer directory is provided as a public service. The Florida Bar maintains limited basic information about attorneys licensed to practice in the state (e.g., name, address, year of
birth, gender, law schools attended, admission year). However, through this directory The Florida Bar allows individual attorneys the opportunity to provide for public information certain
expanded personal and professional data. It is the attorney's responsibility to routinely review and update those expanded listings. The information contained in those expanded listings is
presented by the Bar "as is" with no warranty of any kind, express or implied. The Florida Bar, its Board of Governors, employees, and agents thereof are not responsible for the accuracy of
that additional data. Publication of attorneys' contact information within this listing should not be construed as their consent to receive unsolicited communications in any form. Certain
