This Article responds to two recent Florida Bar Journal articles in which Judge Chris W. Altenbernd and Jamie Marcario argue for a new standard for deciding petitions for certiorari in Florida’s court system. With the stated goal of remedying the lack of predictability under the current status, Judge Altenbernd and Ms. Marcario propose functional language, which they state would not significantly change the historic scope and use of the writ of certiorari. This Article explains that such a significant change could occur if the proposed standard were applied to non-final orders implicating the right to due process. Specifically, this Article points out that the Florida Supreme Court has consistently declined to create an automatic right to certiorari review for certain non-final orders; however, Judge Altenbernd and Ms. Marcario’s proposal would take away from the Court the constitutionally granted right to control which kinds of orders are subject to certiorari review.
