722 | 1. The defendant has previously violated conditions of |
723 | release and that no further conditions of release are reasonably |
724 | likely to assure the defendant's appearance at subsequent |
725 | proceedings; |
726 | 2. The defendant, with the intent to obstruct the judicial |
727 | process, has threatened, intimidated, or injured any victim, |
728 | potential witness, juror, or judicial officer, or has attempted |
729 | or conspired to do so, and that no condition of release will |
730 | reasonably prevent the obstruction of the judicial process; |

732 | substances as defined by s. 893.135, that there is a substantial |
733 | probability that the defendant has committed the offense, and |
734 | that no conditions of release will reasonably assure the |

736 | 4. The defendant is charged with DUI manslaughter, as |
737 | defined by s. 316.193, and that there is a substantial |
738 | probability that the defendant committed the crime and that the |
739 | defendant poses a threat of harm to the community; conditions |
740 | that would support a finding by the court pursuant to this |
741 | subparagraph that the defendant poses a threat of harm to the |
742 | community include, but are not limited to, any of the following: |
743 | a. The defendant has previously been convicted of any |
744 | crime under s. 316.193, or of any crime in any other state or |
745 | territory of the United States that is substantially similar to |
746 | any crime under s. 316.193; |
747 | b. The defendant was driving with a suspended driver's |
748 | license when the charged crime was committed; or |
749 | c. The defendant has previously been found guilty of, or |
750 | has had adjudication of guilt withheld for, driving while the |
751 | defendant's driver's license was suspended or revoked in |
752 | violation of s. 322.34; |
753 | 5. The defendant poses the threat of harm to the |
754 | community. The court may so conclude, if it finds that the |
755 | defendant is presently charged with a dangerous crime, that |
756 | there is a substantial probability that the defendant committed |
757 | such crime, that the factual circumstances of the crime indicate |
758 | a disregard for the safety of the community, and that there are |
759 | no conditions of release reasonably sufficient to protect the |
760 | community from the risk of physical harm to persons. |
761 | 6. The defendant was on probation, parole, or other |
762 | release pending completion of sentence or on pretrial release |
763 | for a dangerous crime at the time the current offense was |
764 | committed; or |
765 | 7. The defendant has violated one or more conditions of |
766 | pretrial release or bond for the offense currently before the |
767 | court and the violation, in the discretion of the court, |
768 | supports a finding that no conditions of release can reasonably |
769 | protect the community from risk of physical harm to persons or |
770 | assure the presence of the accused at trial. |

1066 | (b) WORKSHEET KEY: |
1067 |
|
1068 | Legal status points are assessed when any form of legal status |
1069 | existed at the time the offender committed an offense before the |
1070 | court for sentencing. Four (4) sentence points are assessed for |
1071 | an offender's legal status. |
1072 |
|
1073 | Community sanction violation points are assessed when a |
1074 | community sanction violation is before the court for sentencing. |
1075 | Six (6) sentence points are assessed for each community sanction |
1076 | violation, and each successive community sanction violation; |
1077 | however, if the community sanction violation includes a new |
1078 | felony conviction before the sentencing court, twelve (12) |
1079 | community sanction violation points are assessed for such |
1080 | violation, and for each successive community sanction violation |
1081 | involving a new felony conviction. Multiple counts of community |
1082 | sanction violations before the sentencing court shall not be a |
1083 | basis for multiplying the assessment of community sanction |
1084 | violation points. |
1085 |
|
1086 | Prior serious felony points: If the offender has a primary |
1087 | offense or any additional offense ranked in level 8, level 9, or |
1088 | level 10, and one or more prior serious felonies, a single |
1089 | assessment of 30 points shall be added. For purposes of this |
1090 | section, a prior serious felony is an offense in the offender's |
1091 | prior record that is ranked in level 8, level 9, or level 10 |
1092 | under s. 921.0022 or s. 921.0023 and for which the offender is |
1093 | serving a sentence of confinement, supervision, or other |
1094 | sanction or for which the offender's date of release from |
1095 | confinement, supervision, or other sanction, whichever is later, |
1096 | is within 3 years before the date the primary offense or any |
1097 | additional offense was committed. |
1098 |
|
1099 | Prior capital felony points: If the offender has one or more |
1100 | prior capital felonies in the offender's criminal record, points |
1101 | shall be added to the subtotal sentence points of the offender |
1102 | equal to twice the number of points the offender receives for |
1103 | the primary offense and any additional offense. A prior capital |
1104 | felony in the offender's criminal record is a previous capital |
1105 | felony offense for which the offender has entered a plea of nolo |
1106 | contendere or guilty or has been found guilty; or a felony in |
1107 | another jurisdiction which is a capital felony in that |
1108 | jurisdiction, or would be a capital felony if the offense were |
1109 | committed in this state. |
1110 |
|
1111 | Possession of a firearm, semiautomatic firearm, or machine gun: |
1112 | If the offender is convicted of committing or attempting to |
1113 | commit any felony other than those enumerated in s. 775.087(2) |
1114 | while having in his or her possession: a firearm as defined in |
1115 | s. 790.001(6), an additional 18 sentence points are assessed; or |
1116 | if the offender is convicted of committing or attempting to |
1117 | commit any felony other than those enumerated in s. 775.087(3) |
1118 | while having in his or her possession a semiautomatic firearm as |
1119 | defined in s. 775.087(3) or a machine gun as defined in s. |
1120 | 790.001(9), an additional 25 sentence points are assessed. |
1121 |
|
1122 | Sentencing multipliers: |
1123 |
|
1124 | Drug trafficking: If the primary offense is drug trafficking |
1125 | under s. 893.135, the subtotal sentence points are multiplied, |
1126 | at the discretion of the court, for a level 7 or level 8 |
1127 | offense, by 1.5. The state attorney may move the sentencing |
1128 | court to reduce or suspend the sentence of a person convicted of |
1129 | a level 7 or level 8 offense, if the offender provides |
1130 | substantial assistance as described in s. 893.135(4). |
1131 |
|
1132 | Law enforcement protection: If the primary offense is a |
1133 | violation of the Law Enforcement Protection Act under s. |
1134 | 775.0823(2), the subtotal sentence points are multiplied by 2.5. |
1135 | If the primary offense is a violation of s. 775.0823(3), (4), |
1136 | (5), (6), (7), or (8), the subtotal sentence points are |
1137 | multiplied by 2.0. If the primary offense is a violation of s. |
1138 | 784.07(3) or s. 775.0875(1), or of the Law Enforcement |
1139 | Protection Act under s. 775.0823(9) or (10), the subtotal |
1140 | sentence points are multiplied by 1.5. |
1141 |
|
1142 | Grand theft of a motor vehicle: If the primary offense is grand |
1143 | theft of the third degree involving a motor vehicle and in the |
1144 | offender's prior record, there are three or more grand thefts of |
1145 | the third degree involving a motor vehicle, the subtotal |
1146 | sentence points are multiplied by 1.5. |
1147 |
|
1148 | Offense related to a criminal street gang: If the offender is |
1149 | convicted of the primary offense and committed that offense for |
1150 | the purpose of benefiting, promoting, or furthering the |
1151 | interests of a criminal street gang as prohibited under s. |
1152 | 874.04, the subtotal sentence points are multiplied by 1.5. |
1153 |
|
1154 | Domestic violence in the presence of a child: If the offender is |
1155 | convicted of the primary offense and the primary offense is a |
1156 | crime of domestic violence, as defined in s. 741.28, which was |
1157 | committed in the presence of a child under 16 years of age who |
1158 | is a family or household member as defined in s. 741.28(3) with |
1159 | the victim or perpetrator, the subtotal sentence points are |
1160 | multiplied by 1.5. |
1161 | Section 19. For the purpose of incorporating the amendment |
1162 | to section 893.135, Florida Statutes, in a reference thereto, |
1163 | subsection (2) of section 921.142, Florida Statutes, is |
1164 | reenacted to read: |
1165 | 921.142 Sentence of death or life imprisonment for capital |
1166 | drug trafficking felonies; further proceedings to determine |
1167 | sentence.-- |
1168 | (2) SEPARATE PROCEEDINGS ON ISSUE OF PENALTY.--Upon |
1169 | conviction or adjudication of guilt of a defendant of a capital |
1170 | felony under s. 893.135, the court shall conduct a separate |
1171 | sentencing proceeding to determine whether the defendant should |
1172 | be sentenced to death or life imprisonment as authorized by s. |
1173 | 775.082. The proceeding shall be conducted by the trial judge |
1174 | before the trial jury as soon as practicable. If, through |
1175 | impossibility or inability, the trial jury is unable to |
1176 | reconvene for a hearing on the issue of penalty, having |
1177 | determined the guilt of the accused, the trial judge may summon |
1178 | a special juror or jurors as provided in chapter 913 to |
1179 | determine the issue of the imposition of the penalty. If the |
1180 | trial jury has been waived, or if the defendant pleaded guilty, |
1181 | the sentencing proceeding shall be conducted before a jury |
1182 | impaneled for that purpose, unless waived by the defendant. In |
1183 | the proceeding, evidence may be presented as to any matter that |
1184 | the court deems relevant to the nature of the crime and the |
1185 | character of the defendant and shall include matters relating to |
1186 | any of the aggravating or mitigating circumstances enumerated in |
1187 | subsections (6) and (7). Any such evidence which the court deems |
1188 | to have probative value may be received, regardless of its |
1189 | admissibility under the exclusionary rules of evidence, provided |
1190 | the defendant is accorded a fair opportunity to rebut any |
1191 | hearsay statements. However, this subsection shall not be |
1192 | construed to authorize the introduction of any evidence secured |
1193 | in violation of the Constitution of the United States or the |
1194 | Constitution of the State of Florida. The state and the |
1195 | defendant or the defendant's counsel shall be permitted to |
1196 | present argument for or against sentence of death. |
1197 | Section 20. For the purpose of incorporating the amendment |
1198 | to section 893.13, Florida Statutes, in a reference thereto, |
1199 | subsection (1) of section 921.187, Florida Statutes, is |
1200 | reenacted to read: |

1205 | will best serve the needs of society, punish criminal offenders, |
1206 | and provide the opportunity for rehabilitation. |
1207 | (a) If the offender does not receive a state prison |

1219 | intensive supervision and surveillance pursuant to chapter 948. |
1220 | 6. Impose, as a condition of probation or community |

1222 | county facility, a Department of Corrections probation and |
1223 | restitution center, a probation program drug punishment |
1224 | treatment community, or a community residential or |
1225 | nonresidential facility, excluding a community correctional |
1226 | center as defined in s. 944.026, which is owned and operated by |
1227 | any qualified public or private entity providing such services. |
1228 | Before admission to such a facility, the court shall obtain an |
1229 | individual assessment and recommendations on the appropriate |
1230 | treatment needs, which shall be considered by the court in |
1231 | ordering such placements. Placement in such a facility, except |
1232 | for a county residential probation facility, may not exceed 364 |
1233 | days. Placement in a county residential probation facility may |
1234 | not exceed 3 years. Early termination of placement may be |

1252 | service pursuant to s. 775.091. |
1253 | 11. Require the offender who violates chapter 893 or |
1254 | violates any law while under the influence of a controlled |
1255 | substance or alcohol to participate in a substance abuse |
1256 | program. |

1268 | completion of half the term of probation, the Department of |
1269 | Corrections may place the offender on administrative probation |
1270 | pursuant to s. 948.013 for the remainder of the term of |
1271 | supervision. |
1272 | 15. Require residence in a state probation and restitution |
1273 | center or private drug treatment program for offenders on |

1275 | probation. |
1276 | 16. Impose any other sanction which is provided within the |
1277 | community and approved as an intermediate sanction by the county |
1278 | public safety coordinating council as described in s. 951.26. |
1279 | 17. Impose, as a condition of community control, |

1303 | to section 893.13, Florida Statutes, in a reference thereto, |
1304 | section 938.25, Florida Statutes, is reenacted to read: |

1306 | Enforcement.--Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary of |
1307 | the laws of this state, the court may assess any defendant who |
1308 | pleads guilty or nolo contendere to, or is convicted of, a |
1309 | violation of any provision of s. 893.13, without regard to |

1319 | assessment and will not be prevented thereby from being |
1320 | rehabilitated or from making restitution. |
1321 | Section 22. For the purpose of incorporating the amendment |
1322 | to section 893.135, Florida Statutes, in references thereto, |

1328 | information to the extent such procedures are not inconsistent |
1329 | with the conditions, responsibilities, and duties established by |
1330 | this section. Any court of competent jurisdiction may order a |
1331 | criminal justice agency to expunge the criminal history record |
1332 | of a minor or an adult who complies with the requirements of |
1333 | this section. The court shall not order a criminal justice |
1334 | agency to expunge a criminal history record until the person |
1335 | seeking to expunge a criminal history record has applied for and |
1336 | received a certificate of eligibility for expunction pursuant to |
1337 | subsection (2). A criminal history record that relates to a |
1338 | violation of s. 393.135, s. 394.4593, s. 787.025, chapter 794, |
1339 | s. 796.03, s. 800.04, s. 817.034, s. 825.1025, s. 827.071, |
1340 | chapter 839, s. 847.0133, s. 847.0135, s. 847.0145, s. 893.135, |
1341 | s. 916.1075, or a violation enumerated in s. 907.041 may not be |
1342 | expunged, without regard to whether adjudication was withheld, |
1343 | if the defendant was found guilty of or pled guilty or nolo |
1344 | contendere to the offense, or if the defendant, as a minor, was |
1345 | found to have committed, or pled guilty or nolo contendere to |
1346 | committing, the offense as a delinquent act. The court may only |
1347 | order expunction of a criminal history record pertaining to one |
1348 | arrest or one incident of alleged criminal activity, except as |
1349 | provided in this section. The court may, at its sole discretion, |
1350 | order the expunction of a criminal history record pertaining to |
1351 | more than one arrest if the additional arrests directly relate |
1352 | to the original arrest. If the court intends to order the |
1353 | expunction of records pertaining to such additional arrests, |
1354 | such intent must be specified in the order. A criminal justice |
1355 | agency may not expunge any record pertaining to such additional |
1356 | arrests if the order to expunge does not articulate the |
1357 | intention of the court to expunge a record pertaining to more |
1358 | than one arrest. This section does not prevent the court from |
1359 | ordering the expunction of only a portion of a criminal history |
1360 | record pertaining to one arrest or one incident of alleged |
1361 | criminal activity. Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, a |
1362 | criminal justice agency may comply with laws, court orders, and |
1363 | official requests of other jurisdictions relating to expunction, |
1364 | correction, or confidential handling of criminal history records |
1365 | or information derived therefrom. This section does not confer |
1366 | any right to the expunction of any criminal history record, and |
1367 | any request for expunction of a criminal history record may be |
1368 | denied at the sole discretion of the court. |

1476 | July 1, 1992, the department shall notify the appropriate state |
1477 | attorney or statewide prosecutor of an order to expunge which is |
1478 | contrary to law because the person who is the subject of the |
1479 | record has previously been convicted of a crime or comparable |
1480 | ordinance violation or has had a prior criminal history record |
1481 | sealed or expunged. Upon receipt of such notice, the appropriate |

1493 | for noncompliance. The appropriate state attorney or statewide |
1494 | prosecutor shall take action within 60 days to correct the |
1495 | record and petition the court to void the order. No cause of |
1496 | action, including contempt of court, shall arise against any |
1497 | criminal justice agency for failure to comply with an order to |
1498 | expunge when the petitioner for such order failed to obtain the |
1499 | certificate of eligibility as required by this section or such |
1500 | order does not otherwise comply with the requirements of this |
1501 | section. |

1571 | Section 23. For the purpose of incorporating the amendment |
1572 | to section 893.135, Florida Statutes, in a reference thereto, |
1573 | section 943.059, Florida Statutes, is reenacted to read: |
1574 | 943.059 Court-ordered sealing of criminal history |
1575 | records.--The courts of this state shall continue to have |
1576 | jurisdiction over their own procedures, including the |
1577 | maintenance, sealing, and correction of judicial records |
1578 | containing criminal history information to the extent such |
1579 | procedures are not inconsistent with the conditions, |
1580 | responsibilities, and duties established by this section. Any |
1581 | court of competent jurisdiction may order a criminal justice |
1582 | agency to seal the criminal history record of a minor or an |
1583 | adult who complies with the requirements of this section. The |
1584 | court shall not order a criminal justice agency to seal a |
1585 | criminal history record until the person seeking to seal a |
1586 | criminal history record has applied for and received a |
1587 | certificate of eligibility for sealing pursuant to subsection |
1588 | (2). A criminal history record that relates to a violation of s. |
1589 | 393.135, s. 394.4593, s. 787.025, chapter 794, s. 796.03, s. |
1590 | 800.04, s. 817.034, s. 825.1025, s. 827.071, chapter 839, s. |
1591 | 847.0133, s. 847.0135, s. 847.0145, s. 893.135, s. 916.1075, or |
1592 | a violation enumerated in s. 907.041 may not be sealed, without |
1593 | regard to whether adjudication was withheld, if the defendant |
1594 | was found guilty of or pled guilty or nolo contendere to the |
1595 | offense, or if the defendant, as a minor, was found to have |
1596 | committed or pled guilty or nolo contendere to committing the |
1597 | offense as a delinquent act. The court may only order sealing of |
1598 | a criminal history record pertaining to one arrest or one |
1599 | incident of alleged criminal activity, except as provided in |
1600 | this section. The court may, at its sole discretion, order the |
1601 | sealing of a criminal history record pertaining to more than one |
1602 | arrest if the additional arrests directly relate to the original |
1603 | arrest. If the court intends to order the sealing of records |
1604 | pertaining to such additional arrests, such intent must be |
1605 | specified in the order. A criminal justice agency may not seal |
1606 | any record pertaining to such additional arrests if the order to |
1607 | seal does not articulate the intention of the court to seal |
1608 | records pertaining to more than one arrest. This section does |
1609 | not prevent the court from ordering the sealing of only a |
1610 | portion of a criminal history record pertaining to one arrest or |
1611 | one incident of alleged criminal activity. Notwithstanding any |
1612 | law to the contrary, a criminal justice agency may comply with |
1613 | laws, court orders, and official requests of other jurisdictions |
1614 | relating to sealing, correction, or confidential handling of |
1615 | criminal history records or information derived therefrom. This |
1616 | section does not confer any right to the sealing of any criminal |
1617 | history record, and any request for sealing a criminal history |
1618 | record may be denied at the sole discretion of the court. |

1699 | 1, 1992, the department shall notify the appropriate state |
1700 | attorney or statewide prosecutor of any order to seal which is |
