 IN RE: AMENDMENTS TO THE FLORIDA RULES OF JUVENILE
              PROCEDURE—FORM 8.989.

                              September 9, 2021

PER CURIAM.

     This matter is before the Court for consideration of proposed

amendments to the Florida Rules of Juvenile Procedure. See Fla. R.

Gen. Prac. & Jud. Admin. 2.140(b)(1). We have jurisdiction. See

art. V, § 2(a), Fla. Const.

     The Florida Bar’s Juvenile Court Rules Committee (Committee)

filed a report proposing amendments to form 8.989 (Advisory Notice

to Minor). The Committee and the Board of Governors of The

Florida Bar approved the proposed amendments. The Committee

published its proposal for comment prior to filing it with the Court,

and no comments were received. After the Committee filed its

report, the Court published the proposal for comment, and no

comments were received.
     Having considered the proposed amendments, the Court

hereby amends Florida Rule of Juvenile Procedure form 8.989

(Advisory Notice to Minor) as proposed by the Committee with a

minor modification.

     First, form 8.989 (Advisory Notice to Minor) is amended by

replacing “48 hours” with “3 business days” in the fifth paragraph

to conform with section 390.01114(6)(b)1, Florida Statutes (2020).

     Additionally, language is added to the form providing that if

the hearing and decision have not occurred within three business

days, the minor may petition for a hearing to the chief judge of the

circuit, who must ensure a hearing is held within 48 hours after

receipt of the petition and an order is entered within 24 hours after

the hearing.

     Finally, to conform with section 390.01114(6)(a), we amend

form 8.989 to inform the minor that upon request, counsel must be

provided to the minor at least 24 hours prior to the court

proceeding.

     Accordingly, we amend the Florida Rules of Juvenile Procedure

form 8.989 as reflected in the appendix to this opinion. New

language is indicated by underscoring; deletions are indicated by


                                -2-
struck-through type. The amendments to the rule shall become

effective October 1, 2021, at 12:01 a.m.

     It is so ordered.

CANADY, C.J., and POLSTON, LABARGA, LAWSON, MUÑIZ,
COURIEL, and GROSSHANS, JJ., concur.

THE FILING OF A MOTION FOR REHEARING SHALL NOT ALTER
THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THESE AMENDMENTS.
