SIXTH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT

The Chief Judge of the Sixth Judicial Circuit intends to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) by mid-February 2010, for bids for one entity to provide managed mediation program services in residential mortgage foreclosure suits in Pasco and Pinellas Counties, Florida. The managed mediation services intended are described in Supreme Court Administrative Order No.: AOSC09-54, In Re: Final Report and Recommendations on Residential Mortgage Foreclosure Cases, issued December 28, 2009, which is available online at: http://www.floridasupremecourt.org/clerk/adminorders/2009/AOSC09-54.pdf. If you are interested in providing the managed mediation services for the Sixth Circuit, please review Administrative Order No.: AOSC09-54 now to determine the services that may be solicited in the RFP.

When an RFP is issued, it will be posted on the Sixth Judicial Circuit Internet site: www.jud6.org. Because the Sixth Circuit desires to promptly implement AOSC09-54 to help address its large numbers of foreclosure filings, the Circuit anticipates that all bids will be due within 30 days after an RFP is issued.

Please routinely check www.jud6.org for posting of the RFP. For email notice that an RFP has issued, please email a request with the subject line of “Managed Mediation Services RFP” to: courts@jud6.org.
