    The Circuit Criminal division also involves special proceedings such as reopenings, no files, appeals filed from county court, post conviction relief motions, probation revocation hearings, bond hearings, and adversary preliminary hearings. These data are provided by the 67 clerks2 of court. However, special proceedings data are not audited for accuracy by the OSCA.

    1 Reopening - A reopening occurs when a case, that has previously been reported as disposed, is resubmitted to the court through a motion or petition.

    No File - A no file occurs when all charges against a defendant are dropped because the prosecutor did not file an information or seek an indictment.

    Appeal Filed From County Court - An appeal filed from county court is a request that a case be removed from the county court and sent to the circuit court for review.

    Post Conviction Relief Motion - A post conviction relief motion is a motion to vacate, set aside, or correct a sentence pursuant to rule 3.850, Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure.

    Probation Revocation Hearing - A probation revocation hearing is a proceeding in which a judge determines whether a defendant’s probation should be modified or revoked following an alleged violation.

    Bond Hearing -A bond hearing is a hearing in which a circuit judge, or a county court judge acting as a circuit judge, considers a defendant’s pretrial release status at a special hearing for the purpose of setting or modifying bond or other pretrial release.

    Adversary Preliminary Hearing - An adversary preliminary hearing is a proceeding in which a judge considers evidence presented so that the court can determine whether there is sufficient cause to hold the accused for trial.
