Jacksonville Meet and Greet

Paolo Longo, Chair-Elect of the Worker's Compensation Section of The Florida Bar is coordinating "Meet and Greet" sessions throughout the state. Judge Humphries has announced that Jacksonville will hold its Meet and Greet at noon on April 5, 2023. In addition to Judges Holley, Stanton and Humphries, Chief Judge Brian Newman and Deputy Chief Judge David Langham will also be present and participating.

The format provides for each of the Jacksonville judges to set up in their hearing rooms with approximately 25% of those in attendance rotating through. This is your opportunity to speak with each judge about anything pertaining to the adjudicatory process. Those attending will determine the subject matter of each session. The idea is to have an open exchange of questions, comments and concerns. We, the judges, want to hear from you about whatever is on your mind.

Judges Newman and Langham will jointly host a session as well and can provide insight from a "big picture" perspective of the OJCC.

Building management has agreed to open up the gated parking lot behind the district office to accommodate all who wish to attend. Entry is on the eastern side of the building.

Lunch will be made available at an anticipated cost of approximately $15 per person. More on that will follow soon.

Please RSVP at your earliest convenience at the following link:  https://tinyurl.com/OJCCmeetandgreetNEFL

We look forward to seeing you there!

The Florida OJCC is evolving yet again, this time as regards appellate records. The accounting surrounding the preparation of a record on appeal has been a challenging process. And, there have been many over the years that have asked "why can't I use a credit card." The day has finally come when that is possible. That process will be available for many payments on March 1, 2023.  Appellants should keep in mind that there are generally three payments to be made when an appeal is undertaken. The first is the filing fee that is due to the Florida First District. The second is  the cost of the transcript of proceedings which is no longer ever prepared by the team at the OJCC (outside designated transcriptionist). The third  is the cost for the preparation of the record itself (compilation of the transcript, the exhibits, etc.).  The new credit card process we are rolling out now applies only to the third element (payment to DOAH). We cannot accept money for the...

 April 1, 2024 is right around the corner! No "April Fools," changes are coming to the Office of Judges of Compensation Claims interface platforms. The main changes are in eJCC. Take notes, there will be some adaptation needed. The basic interface appearance is changing to accommodate the volume of topics and alternatives. Look for changes. The main screen today looks like But on Monday, it will look like When you hover your mouse over the ones with arrows, like "case" you will get an expanded menu as pictured. This should help with viewing on smaller screens.  We are providing you (the filer) the opportunity to expedite the processing of some motions. An example is settlements. When you upload a  Motion for Approval of Attorney's Fees and Child Support, you will have the option to input the data from your documents. This will speed up the process in our office in many cases. Watch for this change to evolve into a necessity one day. But, for now, it is an option...
