If the department refuses to file a document delivered to its office for filing, the person who submitted the document for filing may petition the Circuit Court of Leon County to compel filing of the document. The document and the explanation from the department of the refusal to file must be attached to the petition. The court may decide the matter in a summary proceeding, and the court may summarily order the department to file the document or take other action the court considers appropriate. The court's final decision may be appealed as in other civil proceedings.
