Attorney Dean Xenick Appointed to Florida Bar Association’s Code & Rules of Evidence Committee

West Palm Beach, FL – Attorney Dean Xenick of Burman, Critton, Luttier & Coleman has been appointed to a three-year term as a member The Florida Bar’s Code & Rules of Evidence Committee.

The Code & Rules of Evidence Committee’s primary focus is on proposed legislation; rule amendments are proposed only as a technical matter to ensure that the Supreme Court's Rules of Evidence comport with the code, Chapter 90, Florida Statutes. The scope and function of the Code and Rules of Evidence Committee is not the same as other standing "rules" committees of The Florida Bar. This is because the law of evidence is established by the legislature and codified in the Florida Statutes rather than promulgated as rules of procedure by the Florida Supreme Court. Therefore, the committee does not strictly follow the procedure for amending rules as set forth in Judicial Administration Rule 2.140.

Mr. Xenick term begins July 1, 2011 to June 30, 2014. He will be installed on Friday, June 24th at during The Florida Bar’s Annual Convention in Orlando.

Mr. Xenick has more than a decade of experience in personal injury, premises liability, wrongful death, construction defects, professional negligence matters, and commercial litigation. He is an active member of the Palm Beach County Bar Association’s Young Lawyers and North County Section. He is a graduate of the University of Florida, receiving his J.D. from the University of Florida, Levin College of Law.
