Writ of Prohibition: What it's for and how to use it

FLORIDA APPEALS JOURNAL™
JOURNAL ENTRY 14. 2020

A writ of probation is used to prevent a lower tribunal from the improper exercise of judicial power. As a general rule, it is a remedy used to prevent an action, not to correct one already taken, and it can only be used if another remedy is not available. It can be used to restrain the exercise of jurisdiction. A writ of prohibition has one special function: to review the denial of a motion to disqualify a trial judge.
