Florida Department of Education

Officials will look at the districts’ compliance with initial and revised Department of Health rules. Education Commissioner Richard Corcoran is expected to report findings of “probable cause.”

State officials say it's due to a "banking error" by JPMorgan Chase.

Attorneys for parents who challenged the executive order filed a motion requesting that the judge issue an order vacating the automatic stay. If the request is granted, that could keep his ruling in effect during the appeal.

Taking the case to the 1st District Court of Appeal in Tallahassee puts an automatic stay on the judge's ruling, which effectively means it would be put on hold while an appeal moves forward.

Education Commissioner Richard Corcoran says the districts are noncompliant with a state health department rule triggered by a governor's ban on local mandates, which a judge has ruled is unconstitutional.

A circuit judge is expected to make his ruling today on Gov. Ron DeSantis’ executive order that sought to ban school districts from requiring students to wear masks.

South Florida students who are especially vulnerable to COVID-19 may not be able to attend school at all if their classmates aren't wearing masks, their parents argue.

It's giving school officials in Alachua and Broward counties 48 hours to reverse course on requiring parents to submit doctors’ notes to opt out of mask mandates or risk losing district funds.

A legal battle over Gov. Ron DeSantis’ attempts to prevent school mask mandates will go ahead next week after a circuit judge refused to dismiss the case Thursday.

Education Commissioner Richard Corcoran has recommended both districts be punished, which could include withholding funds or even removal of leaders from office.

The attorneys are urging a Leon County Circuit Judge John Cooper to dismiss the case filed by parents from various parts of Florida that challenges Gov. Ron DeSantis' executive order.

Gov. Ron DeSantis ratcheted up a confrontation with school superintendents on Monday, saying anyone who defies his ban on mask mandates might lose a paycheck. Teachers and staff wouldn't be punished.
