Motion to Continue Case
Reason for use:
Used when the board does not feel there was sufficient evidence presented by either
party fo render a fair and just ruling.
Motion to Continue Case
The City of Winter Springs vs. (Respondents) Case# I move that
this case be continued to the next regularly scheduled meeting of the Code
Enforcement Board, as the evidence and testimony presented was insufficient to allow
the Board to render a just and fair ruling.
If Respondents are not present:
Let the record show that (Respondents), (are/is) not present at this proceeding and
therefore have not waived their right to formal notification. Therefore I also move that
the Board order the Code Enforcement Officer to notify the respondent(s) of the
continued case as prescribed by Chapter 162:12 of the Florida Statutes.
If the Respondent is present:
Mr. or Mr(s). (Respondents) ,are you willing to waive formal notification of the
continued proceeding?
/f yes:
Let the record show that Mr. or Mr(s). (Respondents) ,agree to waive the right to
formal notification. Therefore I also move that the Board order the Code Enforcement
Officer to provide a courtesy notification to Mr. or Mr(s). (Respondents), about when
their case is to again be heard by the Board.
/f no:
Let the record show that Mr. or Mr(s). (Respondents), (have/has) not waived the right
to formal notification. Therefore the Board orders that the Code Enforcement Officer
notify the respondent(s) of the continued case as prescribed by Chapter162.12 of the
Florida Statutes.
