IN RE:  AMENDMENTS TO FLORIDA SMALL CLAIMS RULES—FORM 
7.347 COMMITTEE NOTE. 
 
[April 17, 2008] 
 
PER CURIAM. 
 
In response to a request from the Court to study whether the Small Claims 
Rules should be amended in light of amendments to section 55.141, Florida 
Statutes,1 the Small Claims Rules Committee (Rules Committee) adds a new 
committee note to Small Claims Form 7.347, Satisfaction of Judgment.  We have 
jurisdiction.  See art. V, § 2(a), Fla. Const.  
 
Accordingly, the following committee note is added to Form 7.347, effective 
upon the release of this opinion: 
2008 Note. This form is suggested for use by parties. To 
avoid possible confusion, when disbursing funds from 
the court registry in satisfaction of a judgment, the clerk 
of the court should instead use the form required by the 
2005 amendment to section 55.141, Florida Statutes. 
                                          
 
 
1.  See Ch. 2005-241, §1, Laws of Fla.

The committee note is that of the Rules Committee.  It is offered by the Rules 
Committee for explanation only and is not adopted as an official part of the rules.   
 
It is so ordered. 
LEWIS, C.J., and WELLS, ANSTEAD, PARIENTE, QUINCE, CANTERO, and 
BELL, JJ., concur. 
 
NOT FINAL UNTIL TIME EXPIRES TO FILE REHEARING MOTION, AND
