Another successful Suspended Driver License Clinic was held at the central courthouse yesterday with more than 150 customers utilizing services in a “one stop” environment. Over 160 cases were heard by the judiciary, and over 100 attendees were either issued a driver license/ID, reinstated a suspended one, or received guidance on how to do so. Thanks to the Clerk of Courts, Brenda D. Forman and her staff, Chief Judge Jack Tuter, Judge Robert F. Diaz, the Department of Motor Vehicles, the Department of Revenue and all other stakeholders that helped to make this event a success!

The Seventeenth Circuit congratulates Judge Raag Singhal for making the short list for the Governor’s consideration for an appointment to the Florida Supreme Court. Judge Singhal is one of 11 who have made the list of nominees sent to Tallahassee, as the Supreme Court must fill three seats left vacant by the up-coming retirements of Justices Lewis, Pariente, and Quince.
