| 671 | relevant facts, that any of the following circumstances exists: |
| 672 | 1. The defendant has previously violated conditions of |
| 673 | release and that no further conditions of release are reasonably |
| 674 | likely to assure the defendant's appearance at subsequent |
| 675 | proceedings; |
| 676 | 2. The defendant, with the intent to obstruct the judicial |
| 677 | process, has threatened, intimidated, or injured any victim, |
| 678 | potential witness, juror, or judicial officer, or has attempted |
| 679 | or conspired to do so, and that no condition of release will |
| 680 | reasonably prevent the obstruction of the judicial process; |
| 681 | 3. The defendant is charged with trafficking in controlled |
| 682 | substances as defined by s. 893.135, that there is a substantial |
| 683 | probability that the defendant has committed the offense, and |
| 684 | that no conditions of release will reasonably assure the |
| 685 | defendant's appearance at subsequent criminal proceedings; or |
| 686 | 4. The defendant is charged with DUI manslaughter, as |
| 687 | defined by s. 316.193, and that there is a substantial |
| 688 | probability that the defendant committed the crime and that the |
| 689 | defendant poses a threat of harm to the community; conditions |
| 690 | that would support a finding by the court pursuant to this |
| 691 | subparagraph that the defendant poses a threat of harm to the |
| 692 | community include, but are not limited to, any of the following: |
| 693 | a. The defendant has previously been convicted of any |
| 694 | crime under s. 316.193, or of any crime in any other state or |
| 695 | territory of the United States that is substantially similar to |
| 696 | any crime under s. 316.193; |
| 697 | b. The defendant was driving with a suspended driver's |
| 698 | license when the charged crime was committed; or |
| 699 | c. The defendant has previously been found guilty of, or |
| 700 | has had adjudication of guilt withheld for, driving while the |
| 701 | defendant's driver's license was suspended or revoked in |
| 702 | violation of s. 322.34; |
| 703 | 5. The defendant poses the threat of harm to the |
| 704 | community. The court may so conclude, if it finds that the |
| 705 | defendant is presently charged with a dangerous crime, that |
| 706 | there is a substantial probability that the defendant committed |
| 707 | such crime, that the factual circumstances of the crime indicate |
| 708 | a disregard for the safety of the community, and that there are |
| 709 | no conditions of release reasonably sufficient to protect the |
| 710 | community from the risk of physical harm to persons. |
| 711 | 6. The defendant was on probation, parole, or other |
| 712 | release pending completion of sentence or on pretrial release |
| 713 | for a dangerous crime at the time the current offense was |
| 714 | committed; or |
| 715 | 7. The defendant has violated one or more conditions of |
| 716 | pretrial release or bond for the offense currently before the |
| 717 | court and the violation, in the discretion of the court, |
| 718 | supports a finding that no conditions of release can reasonably |
| 719 | protect the community from risk of physical harm to persons or |
| 720 | assure the presence of the accused at trial. |

|
| 969 | (b) WORKSHEET KEY: |
| 970 |
|
| 971 | Legal status points are assessed when any form of legal status |
| 972 | existed at the time the offender committed an offense before the |
| 973 | court for sentencing. Four (4) sentence points are assessed for |
| 974 | an offender's legal status. |
| 975 |
|
| 976 | Community sanction violation points are assessed when a |
| 977 | community sanction violation is before the court for sentencing. |
| 978 | Six (6) sentence points are assessed for each community sanction |
| 979 | violation, and each successive community sanction violation; |
| 980 | however, if the community sanction violation includes a new |
| 981 | felony conviction before the sentencing court, twelve (12) |
| 982 | community sanction violation points are assessed for such |
| 983 | violation, and for each successive community sanction violation |
| 984 | involving a new felony conviction. Multiple counts of community |
| 985 | sanction violations before the sentencing court shall not be a |
| 986 | basis for multiplying the assessment of community sanction |
| 987 | violation points. |
| 988 |
|
| 989 | Prior serious felony points: If the offender has a primary |
| 990 | offense or any additional offense ranked in level 8, level 9, or |
| 991 | level 10, and one or more prior serious felonies, a single |
| 992 | assessment of 30 points shall be added. For purposes of this |
| 993 | section, a prior serious felony is an offense in the offender's |
| 994 | prior record that is ranked in level 8, level 9, or level 10 |
| 995 | under s. 921.0022 or s. 921.0023 and for which the offender is |
| 996 | serving a sentence of confinement, supervision, or other |
| 997 | sanction or for which the offender's date of release from |
| 998 | confinement, supervision, or other sanction, whichever is later, |
| 999 | is within 3 years before the date the primary offense or any |
| 1000 | additional offense was committed. |
| 1001 |
|
| 1002 | Prior capital felony points: If the offender has one or more |
| 1003 | prior capital felonies in the offender's criminal record, points |
| 1004 | shall be added to the subtotal sentence points of the offender |
| 1005 | equal to twice the number of points the offender receives for |
| 1006 | the primary offense and any additional offense. A prior capital |
| 1007 | felony in the offender's criminal record is a previous capital |
| 1008 | felony offense for which the offender has entered a plea of nolo |
| 1009 | contendere or guilty or has been found guilty; or a felony in |
| 1010 | another jurisdiction which is a capital felony in that |
| 1011 | jurisdiction, or would be a capital felony if the offense were |
| 1012 | committed in this state. |
| 1013 |
|
| 1014 | Possession of a firearm, semiautomatic firearm, or machine gun: |
| 1015 | If the offender is convicted of committing or attempting to |
| 1016 | commit any felony other than those enumerated in s. 775.087(2) |
| 1017 | while having in his or her possession: a firearm as defined in |
| 1018 | s. 790.001(6), an additional 18 sentence points are assessed; or |
| 1019 | if the offender is convicted of committing or attempting to |
| 1020 | commit any felony other than those enumerated in s. 775.087(3) |
| 1021 | while having in his or her possession a semiautomatic firearm as |
| 1022 | defined in s. 775.087(3) or a machine gun as defined in s. |
| 1023 | 790.001(9), an additional 25 sentence points are assessed. |
| 1024 |
|
| 1025 | Sentencing multipliers: |
| 1026 |
|
| 1027 | Drug trafficking: If the primary offense is drug trafficking |
| 1028 | under s. 893.135, the subtotal sentence points are multiplied, |
| 1029 | at the discretion of the court, for a level 7 or level 8 |
| 1030 | offense, by 1.5. The state attorney may move the sentencing |
| 1031 | court to reduce or suspend the sentence of a person convicted of |
| 1032 | a level 7 or level 8 offense, if the offender provides |
| 1033 | substantial assistance as described in s. 893.135(4). |
| 1034 |
|
| 1035 | Law enforcement protection: If the primary offense is a |
| 1036 | violation of the Law Enforcement Protection Act under s. |
| 1037 | 775.0823(2), the subtotal sentence points are multiplied by 2.5. |
| 1038 | If the primary offense is a violation of s. 775.0823(3), (4), |
| 1039 | (5), (6), (7), or (8), the subtotal sentence points are |
| 1040 | multiplied by 2.0. If the primary offense is a violation of s. |
| 1041 | 784.07(3) or s. 775.0875(1), or of the Law Enforcement |
| 1042 | Protection Act under s. 775.0823(9) or (10), the subtotal |
| 1043 | sentence points are multiplied by 1.5. |
| 1044 |
|
| 1045 | Grand theft of a motor vehicle: If the primary offense is grand |
| 1046 | theft of the third degree involving a motor vehicle and in the |
| 1047 | offender's prior record, there are three or more grand thefts of |
| 1048 | the third degree involving a motor vehicle, the subtotal |
| 1049 | sentence points are multiplied by 1.5. |
| 1050 |
|
| 1051 | Offense related to a criminal street gang: If the offender is |
| 1052 | convicted of the primary offense and committed that offense for |
| 1053 | the purpose of benefiting, promoting, or furthering the |
| 1054 | interests of a criminal street gang as prohibited under s. |
| 1055 | 874.04, the subtotal sentence points are multiplied by 1.5. |
| 1056 |
|
| 1057 | Domestic violence in the presence of a child: If the offender is |
| 1058 | convicted of the primary offense and the primary offense is a |
| 1059 | crime of domestic violence, as defined in s. 741.28, which was |
| 1060 | committed in the presence of a child under 16 years of age who |
| 1061 | is a family household member as defined in s. 741.28(2) with the |
| 1062 | victim or perpetrator, the subtotal sentence points are |
| 1063 | multiplied by 1.5. |
| 1064 | Section 18. For the purpose of incorporating the amendment |
| 1065 | to section 893.135, Florida Statutes, in a reference thereto, |
| 1066 | subsection (2) of section 921.142, Florida Statutes, is |
| 1067 | reenacted to read: |
| 1068 | 921.142 Sentence of death or life imprisonment for capital |
| 1069 | drug trafficking felonies; further proceedings to determine |
| 1070 | sentence.-- |
| 1071 | (2) SEPARATE PROCEEDINGS ON ISSUE OF PENALTY.--Upon |
| 1072 | conviction or adjudication of guilt of a defendant of a capital |
| 1073 | felony under s. 893.135, the court shall conduct a separate |
| 1074 | sentencing proceeding to determine whether the defendant should |
| 1075 | be sentenced to death or life imprisonment as authorized by s. |
| 1076 | 775.082. The proceeding shall be conducted by the trial judge |
| 1077 | before the trial jury as soon as practicable. If, through |
| 1078 | impossibility or inability, the trial jury is unable to |
| 1079 | reconvene for a hearing on the issue of penalty, having |
| 1080 | determined the guilt of the accused, the trial judge may summon |
| 1081 | a special juror or jurors as provided in chapter 913 to |
| 1082 | determine the issue of the imposition of the penalty. If the |
| 1083 | trial jury has been waived, or if the defendant pleaded guilty, |
| 1084 | the sentencing proceeding shall be conducted before a jury |
| 1085 | impaneled for that purpose, unless waived by the defendant. In |
| 1086 | the proceeding, evidence may be presented as to any matter that |
| 1087 | the court deems relevant to the nature of the crime and the |
| 1088 | character of the defendant and shall include matters relating to |
| 1089 | any of the aggravating or mitigating circumstances enumerated in |
| 1090 | subsections (6) and (7). Any such evidence which the court deems |
| 1091 | to have probative value may be received, regardless of its |
| 1092 | admissibility under the exclusionary rules of evidence, provided |
| 1093 | the defendant is accorded a fair opportunity to rebut any |
| 1094 | hearsay statements. However, this subsection shall not be |
| 1095 | construed to authorize the introduction of any evidence secured |
| 1096 | in violation of the Constitution of the United States or the |
| 1097 | Constitution of the State of Florida. The state and the |
| 1098 | defendant or the defendant's counsel shall be permitted to |
| 1099 | present argument for or against sentence of death. |
| 1100 | Section 19. For the purpose of incorporating the amendment |
| 1101 | to section 893.13, Florida Statutes, in references thereto, |
| 1102 | subsection (1) of section 921.187, Florida Statutes, is |
| 1103 | reenacted to read: |
| 1104 | 921.187 Disposition and sentencing; alternatives; |
| 1105 | restitution.-- |
| 1106 | (1) The alternatives provided in this section for the |
| 1107 | disposition of criminal cases shall be used in a manner that |

| 1121 | 5. Place the offender into community control requiring |
| 1122 | intensive supervision and surveillance pursuant to chapter 948. |
| 1123 | 6. Impose, as a condition of probation or community |

| 1125 | county facility, a Department of Corrections probation and |
| 1126 | restitution center, a probation program drug punishment |
| 1127 | treatment community, or a community residential or |
| 1128 | nonresidential facility, excluding a community correctional |
| 1129 | center as defined in s. 944.026, which is owned and operated by |
| 1130 | any qualified public or private entity providing such services. |
| 1131 | Before admission to such a facility, the court shall obtain an |
| 1132 | individual assessment and recommendations on the appropriate |
| 1133 | treatment needs, which shall be considered by the court in |
| 1134 | ordering such placements. Placement in such a facility, except |
| 1135 | for a county residential probation facility, may not exceed 364 |

| 1155 | service pursuant to s. 775.091. |
| 1156 | 11. Require the offender who violates chapter 893 or |

| 1171 | completion of half the term of probation, the Department of |
| 1172 | Corrections may place the offender on administrative probation |
| 1173 | pursuant to s. 948.01 for the remainder of the term of |
| 1174 | supervision. |
| 1175 | 15. Require residence in a state probation and restitution |

| 1205 | Section 20. For the purpose of incorporating the amendment |
| 1206 | to section 893.13, Florida Statutes, in a reference thereto, |
| 1207 | section 938.25, Florida Statutes, is reenacted to read: |
| 1208 | 938.25 Operating Trust Fund of the Department of Law |
| 1209 | Enforcement.--Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary of |
| 1210 | the laws of this state, the court may assess any defendant who |
| 1211 | pleads guilty or nolo contendere to, or is convicted of, a |
| 1212 | violation of any provision of s. 893.13, without regard to |
| 1213 | whether adjudication was withheld, in addition to any fine and |
| 1214 | other penalty provided or authorized by law, an amount of $100, |
| 1215 | to be paid to the clerk of the court, who shall forward it to |
| 1216 | the Department of Revenue for deposit in the Operating Trust |
| 1217 | Fund of the Department of Law Enforcement to be used by the |
| 1218 | statewide criminal analysis laboratory system for the purposes |
| 1219 | specified in s. 943.361. The court is authorized to order a |
| 1220 | defendant to pay an additional assessment if it finds that the |
| 1221 | defendant has the ability to pay the fine and the additional |
| 1222 | assessment and will not be prevented thereby from being |
| 1223 | rehabilitated or from making restitution. |
| 1224 | Section 21. For the purpose of incorporating the amendment |
| 1225 | to section 893.135, Florida Statutes, in references thereto, |
| 1226 | section 943.0585, Florida Statutes, is reenacted to read: |
| 1227 | 943.0585 Court-ordered expunction of criminal history |
| 1228 | records.--The courts of this state have jurisdiction over their |
| 1229 | own procedures, including the maintenance, expunction, and |
| 1230 | correction of judicial records containing criminal history |
| 1231 | information to the extent such procedures are not inconsistent |
| 1232 | with the conditions, responsibilities, and duties established by |
| 1233 | this section. Any court of competent jurisdiction may order a |
| 1234 | criminal justice agency to expunge the criminal history record |
| 1235 | of a minor or an adult who complies with the requirements of |
| 1236 | this section. The court shall not order a criminal justice |
| 1237 | agency to expunge a criminal history record until the person |
| 1238 | seeking to expunge a criminal history record has applied for and |
| 1239 | received a certificate of eligibility for expunction pursuant to |
| 1240 | subsection (2). A criminal history record that relates to a |
| 1241 | violation of s. 787.025, chapter 794, s. 796.03, s. 800.04, s. |
| 1242 | 817.034, s. 825.1025, s. 827.071, chapter 839, s. 847.0133, s. |
| 1243 | 847.0135, s. 847.0145, s. 893.135, or a violation enumerated in |
| 1244 | s. 907.041 may not be expunged, without regard to whether |
| 1245 | adjudication was withheld, if the defendant was found guilty of |
| 1246 | or pled guilty or nolo contendere to the offense, or if the |
| 1247 | defendant, as a minor, was found to have committed, or pled |
| 1248 | guilty or nolo contendere to committing, the offense as a |
| 1249 | delinquent act. The court may only order expunction of a |
| 1250 | criminal history record pertaining to one arrest or one incident |
| 1251 | of alleged criminal activity, except as provided in this |
| 1252 | section. The court may, at its sole discretion, order the |
| 1253 | expunction of a criminal history record pertaining to more than |
| 1254 | one arrest if the additional arrests directly relate to the |
| 1255 | original arrest. If the court intends to order the expunction of |
| 1256 | records pertaining to such additional arrests, such intent must |
| 1257 | be specified in the order. A criminal justice agency may not |
| 1258 | expunge any record pertaining to such additional arrests if the |
| 1259 | order to expunge does not articulate the intention of the court |
| 1260 | to expunge a record pertaining to more than one arrest. This |
| 1261 | section does not prevent the court from ordering the expunction |
| 1262 | of only a portion of a criminal history record pertaining to one |
| 1263 | arrest or one incident of alleged criminal activity. |
| 1264 | Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, a criminal justice |
| 1265 | agency may comply with laws, court orders, and official requests |
| 1266 | of other jurisdictions relating to expunction, correction, or |
| 1267 | confidential handling of criminal history records or information |
| 1268 | derived therefrom. This section does not confer any right to the |
| 1269 | expunction of any criminal history record, and any request for |
| 1270 | expunction of a criminal history record may be denied at the |
| 1271 | sole discretion of the court. |
| 1272 | (1) PETITION TO EXPUNGE A CRIMINAL HISTORY RECORD.--Each |
| 1273 | petition to a court to expunge a criminal history record is |
| 1274 | complete only when accompanied by: |
| 1275 | (a) A certificate of eligibility for expunction issued by |
| 1276 | the department pursuant to subsection (2). |
| 1277 | (b) The petitioner's sworn statement attesting that the |
| 1278 | petitioner: |
| 1279 | 1. Has never, prior to the date on which the petition is |

| 1281 | comparable ordinance violation or adjudicated delinquent for |
| 1282 | committing a felony or a misdemeanor specified in s. |
| 1283 | 943.051(3)(b). |
| 1284 | 2. Has not been adjudicated guilty of, or adjudicated |
| 1285 | delinquent for committing, any of the acts stemming from the |
| 1286 | arrest or alleged criminal activity to which the petition |

| 1288 | 3. Has never secured a prior sealing or expunction of a |
| 1289 | criminal history record under this section, former s. 893.14, |

| 1293 | or her knowledge or belief and does not have any other petition |
| 1294 | to expunge or any petition to seal pending before any court. |

|
| 1296 | Any person who knowingly provides false information on such |
| 1297 | sworn statement to the court commits a felony of the third |
| 1298 | degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082, s. 775.083, or s. |
| 1299 | 775.084. |
| 1300 | (2) CERTIFICATE OF ELIGIBILITY FOR EXPUNCTION.--Prior to |
| 1301 | petitioning the court to expunge a criminal history record, a |
| 1302 | person seeking to expunge a criminal history record shall apply |
| 1303 | to the department for a certificate of eligibility for |
| 1304 | expunction. The department shall, by rule adopted pursuant to |
| 1305 | chapter 120, establish procedures pertaining to the application |
| 1306 | for and issuance of certificates of eligibility for expunction. |
| 1307 | The department shall issue a certificate of eligibility for |
| 1308 | expunction to a person who is the subject of a criminal history |
| 1309 | record if that person: |
| 1310 | (a) Has obtained, and submitted to the department, a |
| 1311 | written, certified statement from the appropriate state attorney |
| 1312 | or statewide prosecutor which indicates: |
| 1313 | 1. That an indictment, information, or other charging |
| 1314 | document was not filed or issued in the case. |

| 1358 | (3) PROCESSING OF A PETITION OR ORDER TO EXPUNGE.-- |
| 1359 | (a) In judicial proceedings under this section, a copy of |
| 1360 | the completed petition to expunge shall be served upon the |
| 1361 | appropriate state attorney or the statewide prosecutor and upon |
| 1362 | the arresting agency; however, it is not necessary to make any |
| 1363 | agency other than the state a party. The appropriate state |
| 1364 | attorney or the statewide prosecutor and the arresting agency |
| 1365 | may respond to the court regarding the completed petition to |
| 1366 | expunge. |
| 1367 | (b) If relief is granted by the court, the clerk of the |
| 1368 | court shall certify copies of the order to the appropriate state |
| 1369 | attorney or the statewide prosecutor and the arresting agency. |
| 1370 | The arresting agency is responsible for forwarding the order to |
| 1371 | any other agency to which the arresting agency disseminated the |
| 1372 | criminal history record information to which the order pertains. |
| 1373 | The department shall forward the order to expunge to the Federal |
| 1374 | Bureau of Investigation. The clerk of the court shall certify a |
| 1375 | copy of the order to any other agency which the records of the |
| 1376 | court reflect has received the criminal history record from the |
| 1377 | court. |
| 1378 | (c) For an order to expunge entered by a court prior to |
| 1379 | July 1, 1992, the department shall notify the appropriate state |
| 1380 | attorney or statewide prosecutor of an order to expunge which is |
| 1381 | contrary to law because the person who is the subject of the |
| 1382 | record has previously been convicted of a crime or comparable |
| 1383 | ordinance violation or has had a prior criminal history record |
| 1384 | sealed or expunged. Upon receipt of such notice, the appropriate |
| 1385 | state attorney or statewide prosecutor shall take action, within |
| 1386 | 60 days, to correct the record and petition the court to void |
| 1387 | the order to expunge. The department shall seal the record until |
| 1388 | such time as the order is voided by the court. |
| 1389 | (d) On or after July 1, 1992, the department or any other |
| 1390 | criminal justice agency is not required to act on an order to |
| 1391 | expunge entered by a court when such order does not comply with |
| 1392 | the requirements of this section. Upon receipt of such an order, |
| 1393 | the department must notify the issuing court, the appropriate |
| 1394 | state attorney or statewide prosecutor, the petitioner or the |
| 1395 | petitioner's attorney, and the arresting agency of the reason |
| 1396 | for noncompliance. The appropriate state attorney or statewide |
| 1397 | prosecutor shall take action within 60 days to correct the |
| 1398 | record and petition the court to void the order. No cause of |
| 1399 | action, including contempt of court, shall arise against any |
| 1400 | criminal justice agency for failure to comply with an order to |
| 1401 | expunge when the petitioner for such order failed to obtain the |
| 1402 | certificate of eligibility as required by this section or such |
| 1403 | order does not otherwise comply with the requirements of this |
| 1404 | section. |
| 1405 | (4) EFFECT OF CRIMINAL HISTORY RECORD EXPUNCTION.--Any |
| 1406 | criminal history record of a minor or an adult which is ordered |

| 1409 | criminal justice agency having custody of such record; except |
| 1410 | that any criminal history record in the custody of the |

| 1419 | record that is expunged under this section or under other |

| 1421 | and former s. 943.058, may lawfully deny or fail to acknowledge |
| 1422 | the arrests covered by the expunged record, except when the |
| 1423 | subject of the record: |

| 1425 | agency; |

| 1444 | who has been granted an expunction under this section, former s. |
| 1445 | 893.14, former s. 901.33, or former s. 943.058 may not be held |
| 1446 | under any provision of law of this state to commit perjury or to |
| 1447 | be otherwise liable for giving a false statement by reason of |
| 1448 | such person's failure to recite or acknowledge an expunged |

| 1453 | s. 119.07(1) and s. 24(a), Art. I of the State Constitution, |
| 1454 | except that the department shall disclose the existence of a |
| 1455 | criminal history record ordered expunged to the entities set |
| 1456 | forth in subparagraphs (a)1., 4., 5., and 6. for their |
| 1457 | respective licensing and employment purposes, and to criminal |
| 1458 | justice agencies for their respective criminal justice purposes. |
| 1459 | It is unlawful for any employee of an entity set forth in |
| 1460 | subparagraph (a)1., subparagraph (a)4., subparagraph (a)5., or |

| 1469 | (5) STATUTORY REFERENCES.--Any reference to any other |
| 1470 | chapter, section, or subdivision of the Florida Statutes in this |
| 1471 | section constitutes a general reference under the doctrine of |
| 1472 | incorporation by reference. |
| 1473 | Section 22. For the purpose of incorporating the amendment |
| 1474 | to section 893.135, Florida Statutes, in references thereto, |
| 1475 | Section 943.059, Florida Statutes, is reenacted to read: |
| 1476 | 943.059 Court-ordered sealing of criminal history |
| 1477 | records.--The courts of this state shall continue to have |
| 1478 | jurisdiction over their own procedures, including the |
| 1479 | maintenance, sealing, and correction of judicial records |
| 1480 | containing criminal history information to the extent such |
| 1481 | procedures are not inconsistent with the conditions, |
| 1482 | responsibilities, and duties established by this section. Any |
| 1483 | court of competent jurisdiction may order a criminal justice |
| 1484 | agency to seal the criminal history record of a minor or an |
| 1485 | adult who complies with the requirements of this section. The |
| 1486 | court shall not order a criminal justice agency to seal a |
| 1487 | criminal history record until the person seeking to seal a |
| 1488 | criminal history record has applied for and received a |
| 1489 | certificate of eligibility for sealing pursuant to subsection |
| 1490 | (2). A criminal history record that relates to a violation of s. |
| 1491 | 787.025, chapter 794, s. 796.03, s. 800.04, s. 817.034, s. |
| 1492 | 825.1025, s. 827.071, chapter 839, s. 847.0133, s. 847.0135, s. |
| 1493 | 847.0145, s. 893.135, or a violation enumerated in s. 907.041 |
| 1494 | may not be sealed, without regard to whether adjudication was |
| 1495 | withheld, if the defendant was found guilty of or pled guilty or |
| 1496 | nolo contendere to the offense, or if the defendant, as a minor, |
| 1497 | was found to have committed or pled guilty or nolo contendere to |
| 1498 | committing the offense as a delinquent act. The court may only |
| 1499 | order sealing of a criminal history record pertaining to one |
| 1500 | arrest or one incident of alleged criminal activity, except as |
| 1501 | provided in this section. The court may, at its sole discretion, |
| 1502 | order the sealing of a criminal history record pertaining to |
| 1503 | more than one arrest if the additional arrests directly relate |
| 1504 | to the original arrest. If the court intends to order the |
| 1505 | sealing of records pertaining to such additional arrests, such |
| 1506 | intent must be specified in the order. A criminal justice agency |
| 1507 | may not seal any record pertaining to such additional arrests if |
| 1508 | the order to seal does not articulate the intention of the court |
| 1509 | to seal records pertaining to more than one arrest. This section |
| 1510 | does not prevent the court from ordering the sealing of only a |
| 1511 | portion of a criminal history record pertaining to one arrest or |
| 1512 | one incident of alleged criminal activity. Notwithstanding any |
| 1513 | law to the contrary, a criminal justice agency may comply with |
| 1514 | laws, court orders, and official requests of other jurisdictions |
| 1515 | relating to sealing, correction, or confidential handling of |
| 1516 | criminal history records or information derived therefrom. This |
| 1517 | section does not confer any right to the sealing of any criminal |
| 1518 | history record, and any request for sealing a criminal history |
| 1519 | record may be denied at the sole discretion of the court. |
| 1520 | (1) PETITION TO SEAL A CRIMINAL HISTORY RECORD.--Each |
| 1521 | petition to a court to seal a criminal history record is |

|
| 1544 | Any person who knowingly provides false information on such |
| 1545 | sworn statement to the court commits a felony of the third |
| 1546 | degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082, s. 775.083, or s. |
| 1547 | 775.084. |

| 1552 | department shall, by rule adopted pursuant to chapter 120, |
| 1553 | establish procedures pertaining to the application for and |
| 1554 | issuance of certificates of eligibility for sealing. The |
| 1555 | department shall issue a certificate of eligibility for sealing |

| 1576 | (f) Is no longer under court supervision applicable to the |
| 1577 | disposition of the arrest or alleged criminal activity to which |
| 1578 | the petition to seal pertains. |
| 1579 | (3) PROCESSING OF A PETITION OR ORDER TO SEAL.-- |
| 1580 | (a) In judicial proceedings under this section, a copy of |
| 1581 | the completed petition to seal shall be served upon the |
| 1582 | appropriate state attorney or the statewide prosecutor and upon |
| 1583 | the arresting agency; however, it is not necessary to make any |
| 1584 | agency other than the state a party. The appropriate state |
| 1585 | attorney or the statewide prosecutor and the arresting agency |
| 1586 | may respond to the court regarding the completed petition to |
| 1587 | seal. |
| 1588 | (b) If relief is granted by the court, the clerk of the |
| 1589 | court shall certify copies of the order to the appropriate state |
| 1590 | attorney or the statewide prosecutor and to the arresting |

| 1592 | order to any other agency to which the arresting agency |
| 1593 | disseminated the criminal history record information to which |
| 1594 | the order pertains. The department shall forward the order to |
| 1595 | seal to the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The clerk of the |
| 1596 | court shall certify a copy of the order to any other agency |
| 1597 | which the records of the court reflect has received the criminal |
| 1598 | history record from the court. |
| 1599 | (c) For an order to seal entered by a court prior to July |
| 1600 | 1, 1992, the department shall notify the appropriate state |
| 1601 | attorney or statewide prosecutor of any order to seal which is |
| 1602 | contrary to law because the person who is the subject of the |
| 1603 | record has previously been convicted of a crime or comparable |
| 1604 | ordinance violation or has had a prior criminal history record |
| 1605 | sealed or expunged. Upon receipt of such notice, the appropriate |

| 1607 | 60 days, to correct the record and petition the court to void |
| 1608 | the order to seal. The department shall seal the record until |
| 1609 | such time as the order is voided by the court. |
| 1610 | (d) On or after July 1, 1992, the department or any other |

| 1621 | criminal justice agency for failure to comply with an order to |
| 1622 | seal when the petitioner for such order failed to obtain the |
| 1623 | certificate of eligibility as required by this section or when |
| 1624 | such order does not comply with the requirements of this |
| 1625 | section. |
| 1626 | (e) An order sealing a criminal history record pursuant to |
| 1627 | this section does not require that such record be surrendered to |
| 1628 | the court, and such record shall continue to be maintained by |
| 1629 | the department and other criminal justice agencies. |
