About the District

Middle District of Florida — Federal Court Overview

The United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida is one of the largest federal districts in the Southeast by population and caseload. It covers the central portion of the state across five divisions — Tampa, Orlando, Jacksonville, Fort Myers, and Ocala — with principal courthouses at the Sam M. Gibbons United States Courthouse in Tampa and the George C. Young Federal Building in Orlando. The district serves more than ten million people across twenty-one counties.

M.D. Fla.'s federal criminal docket is broad and active, encompassing drug trafficking, healthcare fraud (a significant area given Florida's large healthcare industry), firearms offenses, financial crimes, and immigration violations. CJA panel attorneys across the district's five divisions handle a high volume of appointed cases annually. Travel between divisions is common for panel attorneys who accept appointments across Tampa Bay and Central Florida. PanelTime™ separates travel expenses from time entries automatically so billing stays organized regardless of how your entries are mixed on the page.

CJA panel attorneys in M.D. Fla. submit compensation through the national eVoucher platform. The court's CJA office manages panel administration and voucher review across all divisions. PanelTime™ — the AI billing tool for federal panel attorneys — produces eVoucher-ready files from your existing timesheets, handling both CJA-20 attorney vouchers and CJA-21 service provider vouchers.
