District Court of Appeal of Florida
Dep't of Children & Families v. E.G., 5D05-3668
A document entitled "order", even if also entitled "court minutes" or "minutes", that is signed by the judge and filed with the clerk is a rendered and appealable order. Department of Children and Family Services' petition for certiorari review of a written order denying a shelter petition is granted where the trial court erred in refusing to hear the evidence in support of the shelter petition and erred in concluding that the father's drug abuse could not support a shelter order.
