Revision Note: §3076 RGS has been consolidated with §1, ch. 19270, 1939. The 1939 act seems to effect an amendment of said §3076. In revising these laws the section relating to record of foreign judgments, which record seems to be supplanted by the judgment lien record for all practical purposes, has been deleted. To retain a separate record of foreign judgments would tend to confuse and mislead and might cause errors in the recording of judgments. Foreign judgments may be t·ecorded in the judgment lien record.

Revision Note: This section has been made up from chs. 11961, 1927; 15989, 1933 as amended by 17858, 1937; 16109, 1933; 16933, 1935 as amended by 16860, 1937; and 16935, 1935, together with §5973 RGS. These laws, whim taken as a whole, provide salaries for county solicitors, usually upon a population basis. Chapter 11961 provided a salary of $7,500 in counties having a po"pulation of 100,-000 to 120,000; however subsequent acts provided a salary of $6,000 in counties having a population of 155,000 or more. In view of the subsequent acts the said $7,500 provision

has been reduced to $6,000. Ch. 7878, 1919 and ch. 9272, 1923 provided salaries in counties having two or more circuit judges, under Ch. 17085, 1935. All counties now have two or more judges; therefore, said two acts have been omitted from the revision as all county solicitors in Florida are covered by other laws . · 32.25 History: §2, ch. 4224; 1893; §1, ch. 5126, 1903; RGS 5975; CGL 8248.

1919; §2, ch. 12068, 1927; RGS 2692; CGL 4359. Revision Note: Subsection "Second" of

§2692 RGS provides that it shall be "grounds of challenge for cause" if a person called for jury duty "has served as a juror in the court in which he is called at any time within one year when no regular terms of court are held, or at any other time within one year where regular terms are held". This provision has not been expressly amended or changed since the adoption of the RGS.

At the time of its adoption §2772 RGS, which. related to the selection of the jury lists, made no mention of the above mentioned "grounds ·of challenge for cause"; however, ch. 12068, 1927, as expressed in its title, was an "act to amend §§ .... 2772 . ... of the revised general statutes of Florida, relating to the qualifications of jurors." The 1927 act inserted in said §2772 by amendment the following provision, to-wit: "The fact that any person so selected had been on a former jury list or had served as a juror in any court at any time shall not be ground for challenge of such person as a juror."

The amendment of 1927 seems to be in conflict with §2692 RGS insofar as they both relate to jury service of persons placed upon jury lists, in any year last past. This conflict seems only to relate to such jurors as are selected in the usual manner and not to special

. venires summoned from the body of the county or bystanders. However, it seems that §2692 conflicts in part with the later expression in ch. 12068, and as §9 of such chapter contains a general repeal of laws in conflict with it, it was superseded to such extent by the conflict.

Therefore, it seems that §2692 RGS should be revised so as to eliminate the said ground of challenge for cause, insofar as it relates to jurors selected from jury lists, but said ground should be retained a s to jurors selected from bystanders or otherwise and not from jury lists. The provision probably should be preserved as a protection against what may be described as habitual jurors around courts which have no jury lists.

§184, ch. 19554, 1939, provides for challenge of jurors in criminal cases and by implication amends or repeals §2692 RGS insofar as they are in conflict. §2692 RGS has been further revised by changing the word, "criminal" in ~he phrase, "criminal court of record" to 'civil"; thereby making the phrase read: "civil

court of record". The phras.e, "or motion of

the state or defendant in any criminal case" has been eliminated. The phrase, "criminal or civil" toward the end of the section, has been stricken and the word, "any" has been changed to the words, "the civil"; thereby making the same read: "when the nature of the civil case requires a knowledge, etc."

Revision Note: This section relates to alternate jurors and was taken from §1, ch. 19030, 1939. Said §1 has been revised so as to omit reference to criminal actions as they are included in the 1939 criminal procedure act. The provisions of the criminal procedure act are substantially the same as the provisions in said §1, ch. 19030.

Revision Note: §§2810 and 2811 RGS have been consolidated, as said sections relate to the same subject matter .and the matter contained in §2811 might well be considered as an amendment of §2810.

CHAPTER 67

APPELLATE PROCEEDINGS IN CHANCERY



Revision Note: §3169 RGS provided for appeals from interlocutory orders in chancery. §1, ch. 13870, 1929, empowers the supreme court to prescribe by court rule the practice and procedure for cases in said court and further provided that upon the promulgation of such rule any law in conflict therewith is at least suspended. On April 30, 1939, the supreme court adopted rule 34, which provides a method of review of interlocutory orders by the supreme court, which seems to replace the procedure set out in §3169 RGS. Said section of RGS has been revised so as to recognize the above mentioned ·rule of the supreme court.
