Terms Used In Florida Statutes 703.10

  • Jurisdiction: (1) The legal authority of a court to hear and decide a case. Concurrent jurisdiction exists when two courts have simultaneous responsibility for the same case. (2) The geographic area over which the court has authority to decide cases.
  • Litigation: A case, controversy, or lawsuit. Participants (plaintiffs and defendants) in lawsuits are called litigants.
Upon the presentation of such petition to such judge, she or he shall make an order requiring the owner or custodian of such abstracts, copies, minutes, extracts, maps, or plats to appear before her or him at a day by her or him fixed, not less than 10 nor more than 30 days from the date of such order, and show cause why the petition should not be granted, and the said judge shall at the time make an order enjoining the owners or persons in charge of such abstracts, copies, minutes, extracts, maps, or plats from removing the same beyond the jurisdiction of the court pending the litigation.
