04-090643-F00IN THE CIRCUIT COURT FOR THE TWENTIETH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT
IN AND FOR CHARLOTTE COUNTY, FLORIDA
A NOTICE FROM THE COURT REGARDING LAWSUITS TO FORECLOSE MORTGAGES
ON HOMES
If you are being sued to foreclose the mortgage on your home you may have the opportunity to participate in
"mediation." At "mediation," you will meet with a Florida Supreme Court certified mediator appointed by the
court and also a representative of the company asking to foreclosure your mortgage to see if you and the
company suing you can work out an agreement to stop the foreclosure. The mediator will not be allowed to
give you legal advice or to give you an opinion about the lawsuit. The mediator's job is to remain neutral
and not take sides, but to give both sides a chance to talk to each other to see if an agreement can be reached
to stop the foreclosure. If you and the company suing you come to an agreement, a settlement agreement will
be written up and signed by you and the company suing you. With some limited exceptions, what each side
says at the mediation is confidential and the judge will not know what was said at mediation.
The Twentieth Circuit has implemented the Homestead Mediation Program (HMP) to provide meaningful
mediations early in the foreclosure process for homeowners that meet the criteria listed below. Election into
or out of this program does not eliminate the opportunity to mediate at any other time prior to trial as may be
allowed by Rule 1.700, Florida Rules of Civil Procedure, and Florida Statute Chapter 44.
Eligibility Criteria for the Homestead Mediation Program:
oO The home has a homestead exemption; and
Qo You are the person who borrowed the money for the mortgage; and
Qo The origination of the note and mortgage sued upon was subject to the provisions of
the federal Truth in Lending Act, Regulation Z.
To participate in the Homestead Mediation Program, the borrower must provide all the following
documents within 20 days after you were served the summons:
e File with the Clerk a written response to the Complaint, with a copy to Plaintiff's
attorney.
e File with the Clerk a completed and signed Homestead Mediation Program Opt-In
Form, with a copy to Plaintiff's attorney.
e And, the Borrower shall complete and sign the Financial Worksheet, include all
attachments requested, and submit the original to Plaintiff's counsel, with a copy to the Court's
Mediation Department.
The Homestead Mediation Program Opt-In Form and the Financial Worksheet can be found on the Court's
website at http://www.ca.cjis20.orghome/main foreclosure.asp or by calling the Court Mediation Department
at 239-533-3353.
Please note that this program is not to be used as a tactic to delay the foreclosure process and is intended for
Borrowers who have the means and ability to effectively mediate their case. An election on the part of the
Borrower to opt-in to the HMP does not operate as an automatic stay of the case, but rather, the proceedings,
including but not limited to discovery, may continue pending mediation.
04-090643-F00The fee for mediation shall be $300.00 for the first two (2) hours, to be equitably and proportionately divided
between the Plaintiff and the Borrower, as provided for by Rule 1.720(g). The Borrower's portion of the
mediation fee, $150.00, is due at the beginning of the mediation session, and shall be payable directly to the
Mediator. Any additional fees for mediation in excess of the initial two (2) hours shall be apportioned equally
between the Borrower and the Plaintiff and shall be payable directly to the Mediator.
If it is determined that the Borrower does not have sufficient payment for the Borrower's portion of the
mediation fee at the beginning of the mediation session, it shall be reported as a failure to appear by the
Borrower. Any party that fails to appear at a properly noticed mediation session and the mediation does not
occur; the party who failed to appear will be responsible for a "no show" cancellation fee of $300.00. Due to
the voluntary nature of this program by the Borrower, if the Borrower fails to appear, this will be deemed as
a waiver of the privilege of further participation in the HMP, mediation will not be rescheduled and the case
will proceed accordingly.
If you have questions or for additional information regarding the Homestead Mediation Program, contact the
Lee County Mediation office at 239-533-3353 or visit our website at
