Keep Your Profile Up To Date

The OJCC offers electronic filing to its registered e-filers. Through that program, attorneys, adjusters, mediators and parties may register to receive notices and orders from the OJCC through electronic transmission. This process affects significant cost savings to litigants in Florida workers' compensation cases. The electronic platform allows parties to register both a primary and secondary email address with the OJCC. To do so, attorneys must list their desired email addresses in e-JCC, in their "profile." Only the e-filer, "user," can change their profile. OJCC district staff cannot change this profile, regardless of being asked to by attorneys or others. Updating the profile is the user's responsibility and power alone. 

Two points are pertinent. First, filing a "Designation of Email Addresses Pursuant to Rules of Judicial Administration Rule 2.516" with this administrative agency does not change the registered user's e-JCC profile. The notices and orders of this Office will be served by this Office on the email addresses listed in e-JCC, regardless of any such Rule 2.516 document filing. The OJCC is not responsible for adjusting users profiles or for serving notices and/or orders on email addresses listed in any pleadings, including "Designations of Email Addresses Pursuant to Rule 2.516." If attorneys wish to alter their registered email addresses as regards OJCC notices or orders, that is and remains their responsibility, in the profile in e-JCC, and is not accomplished by filing a pleading.

When you are logged into e-JCC, click on "my profile" In that screen you can change your password, change your contact emails, and more. If you need help, email us at askojcc@doah.state.fl.us.

Changing the email address you have registered with the OJCC, through e-JCC, will not change the address you have registered with The Florida Bar, The First District Court of Appeal, or any other agency, court, company or otherwise. Changing your e-JCC registered address will change only that, your e-JCC registered address.

How to Reschedule a State Mediation

Image
Back in the day, Emily Litella used to entertain us on the Weekend Update portion of Saturday Night Live. This character would appear as a citizen seeking to correct some perceived editorial position of the television network (a parody of the old Fairness Doctrine spots that some will remember). After rambling a bit about the subject of her op-ed, one of the Weekend Update anchors would interrupt her (not always as easily as they might wish) and correct some misconception in her premise. Emily was famous for her response line "oh, that's very different" followed by "never mind." I was reminded about Emily (actually Gilda Radner, rest her soul) in a recent conversation with an attorney. I was approached with a suggestion. As with many, the speaker led with "I don't know if it's possible, but what if we could . . . " The idea was essentially "what if we (the attorneys) could see a mediator's calendar in order to find a vacant appointment...

Emergencies

Inclement weather may pose a risk of service interruption or office closure. It is important to remember a few contact points for those situations. First and foremost is the rule. However, there are many good sources of information. The Rule: Rule 60Q 60Q-6.130. EMERGENCY OFFICE CLOSURE (1) The Office of Judges of Compensation Claims is subject to closure pursuant to Gubernatorial instructions or declarations pursuant to Article IV, section 1(a) of the Florida Constitution and the Florida Emergency Management Act.

(3) Any unscheduled closure of an OJCC office will be published on the OJCC website, and through such other means deemed necessary by the Deputy Chief Judge. I...
