Judge issues show cause order on FACDL's quo warranto writ!

Thanks again to a tipster.

You can view a pdf of Judge Davey's order here.

It says:
"Finding that Petitioner has made a prima facie showing for quo warranto relief, this Court...hereby issues this Writ of Quo Warranto and directs the Respondents to show cause, in writing, on or before November 16, 2007, as to why such relief should not be granted. Copies of such response shall be filed with this Court. Upon receipt of the Response, the Court will expedite all further proceedings."


Wow. This is an interesting development. I wonder, given the wording of the Order in the plural (Respondents) if each of the Regional Counsels will file a response as well as the Governor and President of the Florida Senate.

Thanks for posting this. I was checking periodically on the clerk's site and saw the entry in the docket when I checked today - but had no access to the order.

I am on the "other half" of this blantly inadequate Law, Criminal Defense Conflict appointments.

I would not be surprised if this ends up in Federal Court and rather quickly.

I dobt Judge Davey will grant the relief sought, that the law is unconstitutional.
