Miami-Dade circuit judges have been disposing of residential foreclosure cases at more than twice the rate of Broward judges, but all Florida circuits are following a game plan to rid themselves of their years-old backlogs by 2016.

Miami-Dade, which had South Florida’s largest backlog, whittled pending cases by 28 percent to 37,611 on May 31 from 52,211 on June 30, 2012. Within the same time period, Broward lagged, cutting its load 7 percent to 41,895 from 45,118 cases. Palm Beach is down 13 percent to 28,632 from 32,977 cases in the same period.
