FL Bar Study Tips from Top Performers

1Florida homestead law is heavily tested: memorize the exemption limits (no dollar cap; 1/2 acre in municipality, 160 acres outside), the devise restrictions (cannot devise away from surviving spouse or minor child), and the life estate/remainder distribution when the property descends
2For Florida civil procedure, know the differences from federal rules: 20-day answer period (vs. federal 21 days), 30 interrogatory limit, 6-person civil juries, and the 2021 adoption of the Celotex summary judgment standard
3Florida's 2023 tort reform (HB 837) changed comparative negligence from pure to modified (51% bar rule) — this is a critical distinction and frequently tested
4Florida Evidence Code treats party admissions as a hearsay exception under §90.803(18), unlike the Federal Rules which classify them as non-hearsay under FRE 801(d)(2) — this is a favorite bar exam distinction
5For Florida criminal law, master Stand Your Ground (§776.012) and Castle Doctrine (§776.013) — know that the burden shifted to the prosecution in 2017 to prove immunity does not apply by clear and convincing evidence
6Florida eliminated permanent alimony in 2023 (SB 1416), leaving only temporary, bridge-the-gap, rehabilitative, and durational alimony — know the maximum durations for durational alimony based on marriage length
