A local rules revision cycle was initiated earlier in the year that included phases for the bar to provide suggestions and make subsequent comments to resulting proposed changes. Based on these phases, detailed and summary versions of the proposed revisions have now been compiled for public comment from August 17 to September 11.
Once this phase is complete, the final steps will be to obtain required confirmations from the U.S. District Court and the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, with a planned effective date for the new rules of December 1, 2009.
