Second DCA Resumes Normal Operations

UPDATE: November 18, 2024

Starting Monday, November 18th, the Second DCA will resume all court operations at 1700 N. Tampa Street, Suite 300, Tampa, FL 33602. In-person filings will be accepted at this location starting on Monday, November 18th. You may also contact the clerk's office at (727) 610-3741 for assistance. 

The notice from October 29, 2024, is below.

Beginning October 29, 2024, and until further notice, in-person filings for the Second DCA will be accepted at the George Edgecomb Courthouse in Tampa, which is located at 800 E. Twiggs St., Tampa, FL 33602. Second DCA staff will be present at the Edgecomb Courthouse on the sixth floor to assist with in-person needs. The mailing address for the Second DCA remains the same at 1700 N. Tampa St., Suite 300, Tampa, FL 33602.

The Second DCA has been temporarily located at Stetson's Tampa Law Center until the completion of its new courthouse in Saint Petersburg, which is planned for 2025. Unfortunately, the law center was impacted by Hurricane Milton, which has made it necessary to move in-person filings until further notice.
