Committee Notes
1968 Adoption. Except for substituting the word "persons" for "men," the suggested rule is a transcription of section 913.10, Florida Statutes. The standing committee on Florida court rules raised the question as to whether this rule is procedural or substantive and directed the subcommittee to call this fact to the attention of the Supreme Court.
1972 Amendment. Same as prior rule.
