The Florida Rules of Appellate Procedure authorize parties to file a variety of routine procedural motions, but the need for many of these motions easily could be avoided. Practitioners who carefully consider the contents of the record and make a schedule of all of the time limits that will apply to the case are less likely to be forced to expend additional efforts in obtaining extensions of time or moving to supplement or correct the record. A little time well spent in the initial stages of the proceeding is likely to save a great deal of time as the case progresses.
