Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure

3.050. Enlargement of Time
When by these rules or by a notice given thereunder
or by order of court an act is required or allowed to be
done at or within a specified time, the court for good
cause shown may, at any time, in its discretion (1)
with or without notice, order the period enlarged if a
request therefor is made before the expiration of the
period originally prescribed or extended by a previous
order or (2) upon motion made and notice after
the expiration of the specified period, permit the act
to be done when the failure to act was the result of
excusable
neglect; but it may not, except as provided
by statute or elsewhere in these rules, extend the
time for making a motion for new trial, for taking
an appeal, or for making a motion for a judgment of
acquittal.
