8 Appendix "14" DiStrict PSL (JCC McAliley): District PSL includes Martin and St. Lucie county. For most.of 27-8 District PSL also included Indian River and Okechobee counties. In the Spring of 28 those two counties were transferred to District MEL in an effort to alleviate the significantly higher filing volumes in District PSL. PFB and "new case" filing volumes in District PSL are both significantly higher than the statewide average. In 26-7, the PFB closure volume in District PSL was close to the significant statewide average. The ongoing effort in District PSL is apparent the above average PFB closure volume in As a result of those efforts, despite the above average filing rates, District PSL had a year-end pending PFB inventory that was both manageable and below the statewide average. Mediator Harwood averaged 11 days from PFB filing to first mediation in This represented a decrease from 26-7, is less than the statewide average, and is within the statutory period. The trial volume in District PSL is significantly higher than the statewide average, while the average number of days between PFB filing and trial (364) is slightly below the statewide average (379). The average days for entry of the trial order in 27-8 was 61 days. Despite a "settlement" order volume (2,38) that is significantly higher than the statewide average (1,515), the average days between filing and order entry is below average. Each of the other statistics supports that District PSL is among the busiest in the state.

These are likewise each lower than the statewide average (379) and the statutory period (21). Judges Remsnyder (8) and Hafner (11) also each issued their respective trial orders in less than the statewide average (37) and in less than the statutory 3 days.
