Generally speaking, a notice of action (or “notice of proposed action”) is a document that informs interested parties that a certain step is being taken or proposed under the law, and that they are being given a chance to respond. Nothing is supposed to happen to you in America “under the law” without some form of notice being given.
A Notice of Action may also be referred to as a Legal Notice, Public Notice or Notice of Intent. Whatever name is used, it is a formal record that notice has been provided so that you can act to protect your rights.
Notices of Action are most often used in dissolution of marriage, probate administration, foreclosures, judicial sales, adoptions, name changes, and fictitious names (or “dba”). They are required by law, and must be posted in an authorized newspaper of general circulation.
— Florida Statutes 49.10 – Notice of action, publication, proof
“(1)(a) All notices of action, except those referred to in paragraphs (b) and (c), shall be published once during each week for 4 consecutive weeks (four publications being sufficient) in some newspaper published in the county where the court is located. (c) Notices of action in foreclosure proceedings as defined in s. 702.09 shall be published once during each week for 2 consecutive weeks (two publications being sufficient) in some newspaper published in the county where the court is located.”
