797     921.244  Order of no contact; penalties.--
798     (1)  At the time of sentencing an offender convicted of a
799violation of s. 794.011, or s. 800.04, or s. 847.0135(5), the
800court shall order that the offender be prohibited from having
801any contact with the victim, directly or indirectly, including
802through a third person, for the duration of the sentence
803imposed. The court may reconsider the order upon the request of
804the victim if the request is made at any time after the victim
805has attained 18 years of age. In considering the request, the
806court shall conduct an evidentiary hearing to determine whether
807a change of circumstances has occurred which warrants a change
808in the court order prohibiting contact and whether it is in the
809best interest of the victim that the court order be modified or
810rescinded.
811     (3)  The punishment imposed under this section shall run
812consecutive to any former sentence imposed for a conviction for
813any offense under s. 794.011, or s. 800.04, or s. 847.0135(5).

822s. 985.701, the court shall impose a court cost of $101 against
823the offender in addition to any other cost or penalty required
824by law.
825     Section 26.  Subsections (1), (2), and (4) of section
826943.04354, Florida Statutes, are amended to read:
827     943.04354  Removal of the requirement to register as a
828sexual offender or sexual predator in special circumstances.--
829     (1)  For purposes of this section, a person shall be
830considered for removal of the requirement to register as a
831sexual offender or sexual predator only if the person:
832     (a)  Was or will be convicted or adjudicated delinquent of
833a violation of s. 794.011, or s. 800.04, or s. 847.0135(5) or
834the person committed a violation of s. 794.011, or s. 800.04, or

839847.0135(5);
840     (b)  Is required to register as a sexual offender or sexual
841predator solely on the basis of this violation; and
842     (c)  Is not more than 4 years older than the victim of this
843violation who was 14 years of age or older but not more than 17
844years of age at the time the person committed this violation.
845     (2)  If a person meets the criteria in subsection (1) and
846the violation of s. 794.011, or s. 800.04, or s. 847.0135(5) was
847committed on or after July 1, 2007, the person may move the
848court that will sentence or dispose of this violation to remove
849the requirement that the person register as a sexual offender or
850sexual predator. The person must allege in the motion that he or
851she meets the criteria in subsection (1) and that removal of the
852registration requirement will not conflict with federal law. The
853state attorney must be given notice of the motion at least 21
854days before the date of sentencing or disposition of this
855violation and may present evidence in opposition to the
856requested relief or may otherwise demonstrate why the motion

859determines the person meets the criteria in subsection (1) and
860the removal of the registration requirement will not conflict
861with federal law, it may grant the motion and order the removal

869or s. 847.0135(5), the registration requirement will not apply
870to the person and the department shall remove all information
871about the person from the public registry of sexual offenders
872and sexual predators maintained by the department. However, the
873removal of this information from the public registry does not
874mean that the public is denied access to information about the
875person's criminal history or record that is otherwise available
876as a public record.
877     Section 27.  Subsection (7) of section 947.1405, Florida
878Statutes, is amended to read:
879     947.1405  Conditional release program.--
880     (7)(a)  Any inmate who is convicted of a crime committed on

888commission may designate another 8-hour period if the offender's
889employment precludes the above specified time, and such
890alternative is recommended by the Department of Corrections. If
891the commission determines that imposing a curfew would endanger
892the victim, the commission may consider alternative sanctions.
893     2.  If the victim was under the age of 18, a prohibition on
894living within 1,000 feet of a school, day care center, park,
895playground, designated public school bus stop, or other place

915district school board to comply with this subparagraph shall not
916result in a violation of conditional release supervision.
917     3.  Active participation in and successful completion of a
918sex offender treatment program with qualified practitioners
919specifically trained to treat sex offenders, at the releasee's

932qualified practitioner who is basing the recommendation on a
933risk assessment. Further, the sex offender must be currently
934enrolled in or have successfully completed a sex offender
935therapy program. The commission may not grant supervised contact
936with a child if the contact is not recommended by a qualified

975commission.
976     b.  A recommendation made as a part of the risk-assessment

991conditions of contact between the sex offender and the child.
992The safety plan must be reviewed and approved by the Department
993of Corrections before being submitted to the commission; and
994     e.  Evidence that the child's parent or legal guardian, if
995the parent or legal guardian is not the sex offender,
996understands the need for and agrees to the safety plan and has

998constant supervision any time the child is in contact with the
999offender.
1000

1002assessment and may not accept a risk assessment from a person
1003who has not demonstrated to the commission that he or she has
1004met the requirements of a qualified practitioner as defined in
1005this section.
1006     6.  If the victim was under age 18, a prohibition on
1007working for pay or as a volunteer at any school, day care

1012on viewing, owning, or possessing any obscene, pornographic, or
1013sexually stimulating visual or auditory material, including
1014telephone, electronic media, computer programs, or computer
1015services that are relevant to the offender's deviant behavior
1016pattern.
1017     8.  Effective for a releasee whose crime is committed on or
1018after July 1, 2005, a prohibition on accessing the Internet or
1019other computer services until the offender's sex offender

1021approves and implements a safety plan for the offender's
1022accessing or using the Internet or other computer services.
1023     9.  A requirement that the releasee must submit two
1024specimens of blood to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement

1031     11.  Submission to a warrantless search by the community

1046specifically in the use of the polygraph for the monitoring of
1047sex offenders, where available, and at the expense of the sex
