Direct File / Bind-Up to Adult Court / Juvenile Court / FS 985.557 / AVVO / Michael A. Haber, Esq. **ARRESTED / **305DUI

Q:     Direct File, means what?  I’m sorry but I don’t understand the meaning for ” Direct File”, it is listed and 0n several of the charges it says “no”, does that mean there is no solid rock hard evidence for those charges? And the charges that have ” direct File”, yes, means the state has physical prove for those charges?? This is for criminal, felony charges, if that makes a difference….

Locally licensed lawyer

For questions involving state laws, lawyers who are licensed in the same state as the asker are often able to provide more relevant answers than out-of-state lawyers.

For questions involving federal laws (e.g., immigration or patents), this distinction is unimportant.

Answered 12 months ago. “Direct file” in Florida generally refers to the process by which juveniles are bound up to adult court.

See the following link for the statute:
