FAQ

A Brady motion is a defendant's request that the prosecution turn over any potentially “exculpatory” evidence or evidence that may be favorable to the accused in a California criminal case.

Brady material , or the evidence the prosecutor is required to disclose under this rule, includes any information favorable to the accused which may reduce a defendant's potential sentence, go against the credibility of an unfavorable witness , or otherwise allow a jury to infer against the defendant's guilt.

The discovery process starts soon after criminal charges are instituted. Once your plea is filed following your arraignment, you can file a Notice of Discovery along with a Demand for Jury Trial. Your discovery notice triggers the prosecutor's duty to give you all evidence they've collected against you.

One of the tools that a knowledgeable criminal defense attorney will use to defend your rights is the pre-trial discovery process when the defense can file a “Demand for Discovery and Inspection” requesting that the prosecution share its evidence with the defense. This can include: Witness lists.

Discovery Served with the Statement of Claim / Complaint If a written discovery request is served upon a Defendant contemporaneously with Plaintiff's complaint, Defendant must serve its responses to the discovery within 45 days of the date of service of Plaintiff's Complaint.

A party issuing a subpoena through an attorney of record or clerk of the court under this rule must, on the same day as the subpoena is served, serve each party to the proceeding with a notice of issuance of subpoena and file this notice with the court.

Florida's statute of limitations for personal injury cases is generally two years from the date of the injury. However, the discovery rule allows for an exception: the statute of limitations may begin on the date you first discovered (or reasonably should have discovered) the injury.

Under the rules, once charges have formally been filed, the State has a period of fifteen days to turn over their initial discovery submission.

What exactly constitutes Brady Material in Florida criminal cases? Brady Material refers to any evidence that is favorable to the accused and material to guilt or punishment. This includes evidence that can negate a defendant's guilt, reduce their potential sentence, or impeach the credibility of a witness.
