Welcome to our court’s website, which I believe you will find reflects the needs of the people in our community as we are committed to serving the citizens of Hillsborough County and those who enter the courtrooms of the 13th Judicial Circuit.  Each year, our caseload in this circuit continues to increase, and as such, we work with our Court Administrator and his staff to find innovative and more efficient ways to serve the public, whether a citizen, litigant, defendant, or an attorney.  Information is a powerful tool and this website is one way for us to help you in gaining knowledge about the court system and, more importantly, access to the courts.

On behalf of the 62 judges in our circuit, I encourage you to “surf” our site and familiarize yourself with the divisions of our court, use the court forms, schedule court hearings in the civil division right now, learn about our court programs, and bookmark your favorite pages. I assure you that we will continually work to update this site to more effectively serve you.

Manuel Menendez, Jr., Chief Judge Signature
