RULE 1.510 REQUIRES THE TRIAL COURT TO STATE ON THE RECORD THE REASONS FOR GRANTING OR DENYING A MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT

Lima v. Gargano, 49 Fla. L. Weekly D2448 (Fla. 3rd DCA Dec. 4, 2024):

Rule 1.510(a) requires that a trial court state, on the record, the reasons for granting or denying a motion for summary judgment. The ruling must contain more than a mere pronouncement that the court has granted or denied the motion since there were no reasons set forth on the record

The court reversed and remanded for the trial court to state the reasons for granting the motion because the rule makes  it mandatory to do so.
