RULINGS ON CONFIRMED ARBITRATIONS ARE NOW ALSO NON-FINAL APPEALS

Jun 18th, 2024 in by admin

In Re: Amendments to Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure, 49 Fla. L. Weekly S121 (May 2, 2024):

The Florida Supreme Court has now adopted a new subdivision to Rule 9.130; it is “(a)(3)(I).”

This new subdivision provides for an interlocutory review of non-final orders that confirm or deny confirmation of an arbitration award, or that modify, correct, or vacate one.

The subsection now contains both the previous section regarding the determination of entitlement of a party to arbitration (which already existed), and the new provision.
