RULE 1.525. 	MOTIONS FOR COSTS AND ATTORNEYS’ FEES
Any party seeking a judgment taxing costs, attorneys’ fees, or
both shall serve a motion no later than 30 days after filing of the
judgment, including a judgment of dismissal, or the service of a
notice of voluntary dismissal, which judgment or notice concludes
the action as to that party.
Committee Notes
2000 Adoption. This rule is intended to establish a time
requirement to serve motions for costs and attorneys’ fees.
Court Commentary
2000 Adoption. This rule only establishes time requirements
for serving motions for costs, attorneys’ fees, or both, and in no way
affects or overrules the pleading requirements outlined by this
Court in Stockman v. Downs, 573 So. 2d 835 (Fla. 1991).
