But now, a county judge rules that Petitioner owes Respondent (agency) $123,990.38. l.In Florida, can a county judge be elevated to permanent state circuit court duty outside his county solely by assignment of a state circuit judge, ignoring the requirements of Florida Statute 26.57 and violating the Due Process Clause?
