Court Costs And Fines In Criminal Cases

1 Section, 8 Pages

By Cathy Reynolds, Former Court Services Manager Where do court costs come from? How does one determine

how much should be assessed in either a misdemeanor case or felony case? What about the costs on a noncriminal infraction? How are fines and costs paid by defendants? Does the Clerk’s office keep all of the money collected? No one statute, or chapter, in the Florida Statutes will give you these answers. How does one determine how much is owed in fines and court costs? Court costs and fines have a basis in numerous statutes and ordinances. While Chapter 938, Florida Statutes, contains the majority of the mandatory and discretionary costs in criminal cases, Chapters 775 and 318 contain several mandatory and discretionary costs, as well. Additional costs can be found in other areas of the statutes. A review of these chapters shows the complexity of determining the amount of mandatory assessments in a given case. Several costs apply per case while other costs apply per charge. Some statutes apply a cost to all misdemeanor, or all felony cases, while other statutes apply a cost to violations of specific charges only. Fines and court costs are divided into two categories: mandatory and discretionary. Florida Statute §28.2457 requires mandatory assessments to be imposed regardless of whether or not the assessment is announced in open court. This provision applies to any type of assessment deemed mandatory by statute—a fine, fee, service charge, or cost. First Judicial Circuit Administrative Order No. 2014-23 further directs the Clerk to assess all mandatory assessments in a case regardless of whether or not they were announced in open court. It further directs the Clerk to include the mandatory assessments on the written judgment and sentence sent to the judge for signature. Discretionary costs can only be assessed when announced by the judge and must be based on statutory authority.

on any amount referred to it for collections. The Clerk is tasked with attempting to collect the money prior to sending it to an outside agency. In Escambia County, the Clerk has set up a Collections Division, which is focused strictly on the collection of court costs and fines. The Collections Division works withdefendants either to make payments on their cases or enter into payment plans so they can comply with the payment of the court ordered costs and fines. Section 322.245 provides two alternative provisions under which a defendant’s license may be suspended for failure to pay financial obligations or for failure to comply with court directives. To clear this suspension, a defendant must pay their court costs and fines in full or enter into a payment plan with the Clerk. If other directives of the court are holding the license, such as a class, those items must be completed before a suspension may be lifted. The Clerk does not suspend a defendant’s driver’s license; rather, that action is taken by the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles. In accordance with the statute, the Clerk informs Escambia/Santa Rosa Bar Association DHSMV when financial obligations remain unpaid.

placed on probation and he or she is given the term of probation to pay his or her court costs and fines. Another common scenario is for a judge to order that costs and fines have to be paid by a certain date, which is typically a few months from the date of sentencing. At the time of sentencing, the judge has the option to provide the defendant with a folder to take to the Clerk’s office. This folder communicates the necessary sentence and disposition information from the court room deputy clerk to the clerk in the records division, or collections division, in order for those personnel Spring 2016 to add the costs and fines to the case and explain the payment options to the defendant.

What are a defendant’s payment options? Volume 5 / Issue 1 Who receives the money A defendant has three options collected by the clerk?

The monies collected by the Clerk’s office are distributed in accordance with §28.246(5) to the Department of Revenue, state trust funds, counties, local municipalities and to the clerk’s operating budget. To determine which of these numerous state and local funds should receive the money, the Clerk’s office has to and review all of the statutory references that form the basis of the court costs and fines to determine the distribution. For some costs, a single statute may set out one amount that is to be assessed and then direct the distribution of the amount to multiple locations. The base mandatory court costs in a misdemeanor or felony case ($273 or $518) is dispersed to 14 different accounts by the Clerk’s office. A speeding ticket will have the statutory fine disbursed to 13 different accounts while the statutory costs are disbursed to page 16 11 different accounts. The Clerk’s fines.

the costs be reduced to a lien at the time of sentencing or at a violation of probation hearing. This action can cause up to three judgments to be entered against the defendant for court costs and fines, probation costs, and restitution amounts. When these judgments are entered they are recorded in official records and become liens on any real property of the defendant. The reduction of the amounts due to a lien does not replace a defendant’s requirement to pay the amounts due; instead they serve as an additional method for securing payment. When a judgment is entered, it accrues interest at the statutory rate until the amount is paid in full or is placed into a payment plan.

The Summation Weekly PERRY, SMITH BATTLE FOR SENATE SEAT By BRANDON LARRABEE THE NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA Fracking, a dispute about a campaign sign and an attempted political comeback have heated up the battle for a North Florida Senate seat in a key swing district. The outcome of the race between state Rep. Keith Perry, R-Gainesville, and former state Sen. Rod Smith, D-Alachua, could help Democrats in their effort to chip away at the Republican Party’s majority in the Senate. Meanwhile, Republicans hope to hold onto the seat as part of their legislative dominance across much of North Florida. After a redistricting court battle, Senate District 8 has been redrawn to include Alachua and Putnam counties along with northern Marion County. As an indication of the swing nature of the seat, President Barack Obama carried the district by just under 1.4 percentage points in his 2012 re-election campaign. The race has attracted big money, with Perry raising more than $611,000 and Smith raking in more than $563,000 for their campaign accounts --- not to mention money getting dumped into the race through political committees. Smith, 66, is a longtime political figure in the Gainesville area and has also been prominent in state Democratic politics. He served as state attorney before getting elected to the Senate in 2000 and serving six years. Smith later became chairman of the Florida

Capitol News

Democratic Party and was former state Chief Financial Officer Alex Sink’s running mate in the 2010 governor’s race. Perry, 57, is a contractor who’s served the past six years in the House, with his district including part of Alachua County and rural Dixie and Gilchrist counties. Neither candidate faced a primary opponent this year, and as they have battled in the Nov. 8 general election, Smith has tried to zero in on Perry’s support for legislation dealing with fracking, a controversial technique for extracting oil and natural gas from the ground. Supporters of the legislation said it would have allowed the state to regulate fracking, but environmentalists opposed the measure, saying it would have done more to open up the state up to fracking than to regulate the practice. “This bill was drawn up by, for and of the petroleum industry,” said Smith, adding that the industry gave hundreds of thousands of dollars to the state Republican Party. “Everybody knows what that was about. That was to give them the intro to bring fracking into this state.” The bill was approved this year by the House but died in the Senate. Florida Conservation Voters dubbed Perry as one of its “Dirty Dozen in the States” for backing the legislation. But echoing arguments that many Republican lawmakers made during the legislative session, Perry said fracking is already legal under state law, calling it “disingenuous” to suggest that the bill would have allowed it. And he

BONDI’S OFFICE LOOKS FOR CLARITY ON DEATH PENALTY

By DARA KAM THE NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA Attorney General Pam Bondi has asked the Florida Supreme Court to clarify a ruling last week that struck down a portion of the state’s death-penalty law, arguing that failing to do so “will only generate confusion.” In a pair of opinions issued last Friday, the court found that a statute, passed in March in response to a U.S. Supreme Court decision in a case known as Hurst v. Florida, was unconstitutional “because it requires that only 10 jurors recommend death as opposed to the constitutionally required unanimous, 12-member jury.” Bondi’s request for clarification came in the case of Larry Darnell Perry, who was convicted in the 2013 murder of his infant son. An appellate court had asked the Florida Supreme Court to decide whether the law passed in March applied to cases that were already under way. In last Friday’s 5-2 decision in the Perry case, the court said that the law was unconstitutional because it did not require unanimous jury recommendations and “cannot be applied to pending prosecutions.” The state contends that death penalty prosecutions can continue without a change in the law, so long as trial courts require unanimous jury recommendations to comply with last week’s ruling. But the Supreme Court majority did not address the issue of “severability,” which would allow portions of the law that are not deficient to remain intact, Senior Assistant Attorney General Carol Dittmar wrote in the 11-page request filed Thursday. “This omission unnecessarily invites continued litigation. The language leaves open the possibility that defense attorneys will assert that no valid death penalty law exists in Florida, demanding that trial judges strike notices of intent to pursue capital cases and refuse to impanel capital juries,” she wrote. However, “the state maintains that after severing the constitutional defect, current capital prosecutions should still be conducted as long as the trial courts ensure that the jury’s final recommendation is unanimous,” Dittmar continued. The arguments “will no doubt be rejected by some trial courts and accepted by others,” leading to more litigation in “an already overburdened system,” Dittmar wrote. “…This court’s finding of a constitutional flaw will only generate confusion, absent some clarification as to trial court’s authority to cure the legislative error,” she argued. But defense lawyers maintain that, a decade ago, the Supreme Court asked the Legislature to address the issue of unanimity. They say it’s now the Legislature’s job --- not the court’s --- to fix the law. “It’s not clarification to ask the court to rewrite the statute,” said Martin McClain,

said the focus on fracking has detracted from other concerns facing the district and the state, from housing costs to infrastructure to education. “I think it’s a non-issue,” Perry said. “I think there are so many other issues that are real, that are pressing, that are important. ... That’s not something that should take up 90 percent of the discussion and debate.” Perry’s campaign has also hit back in ads pointing out that Smith frequently drew “F” ratings from environmental groups during his time in the Legislature, something Smith doesn’t dispute --- though he said that was at least in part because of his position on the Rodman Reservoir, a longrunning environmental issue in North Florida. As much as any specific issue, though, there seems to be an elemental battle between the two candidates, something that goes to their makeup. Smith is a remnant of what might be called the old school of politics, and particularly the Senate, where partisans would do battle but ultimately find a way to settle their differences amicably. He’s displeased with the uptick in partisanship in Tallahassee --- and even closer to home, as he’s discovered in gearing up to run for the seat. “I find families that I have worked with for years in the past who said, ‘Rod, you were a great state attorney’ or ‘Rod, you were a great state senator, but I’m much more Republican now,’ “ Smith said. “The flip side is the Democrats have become more entrenched. I have to say, I think that’s been the

who has represented over 200 defendants facing the death penalty. Like Bondi, legislative leaders and prosecutors --- who pushed for 10-2 jury recommendations in death-penalty cases over the repeated warnings of defense lawyers --- contend that the statute does not have to be changed immediately for prosecutions to move forward. But an Ocala judge on Monday put on hold the penalty portion of a murder trial, saying the court needed direction from the Legislature before proceeding. Arguing for the state in the request for clarification, Dittmar wrote that the flaw in the statute “is easy to fix” through “accurate jury instructions and simple interrogatories” and “does not require any substantive rewriting of the law.” But defense lawyers say that allowing trials to proceed without changing the statute could be even more problematic. Relying on judges to craft jury instructions in different cases “is a situation that will cause havoc,” said 5th Judicial Circuit Public Defender Mike Graves, whose office represents Kelvin Lee Coleman in the Ocala murder trial and who argued Coleman’s case Monday. A jury late last week found Coleman guilty of two counts of firstdegree murder. “We literally could have dozens and dozens of different procedures, different jury instructions on the issue of death in individual cases. That, I think, would cause absolutely unnecessary complication in review,” Graves said. “I don’t for the life of me understand what their hurry is.” The state’s death penalty has been in limbo since January, when the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that Florida’s sentencing system was unconstitutional because it gave too much power to judges, instead of juries. Following that decision, the Florida Supreme Court indefinitely put on hold two executions, which are still pending. Of the 31 states with the death penalty, Florida is one of just three --- including Alabama and Delaware --- that have not required unanimous jury recommendations for death to be imposed. Delaware’s high court has halted that state’s death penalty following the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in January in the Hurst case. The Hurst ruling did not address the issue of unanimity, which became a flashpoint during this year’s legislative session as Florida lawmakers sought to repair the state’s death penalty sentencing process to comply with the U.S. Supreme Court decision. Defense lawyers repeatedly told lawmakers that Florida’s “outlier” status regarding unanimity jeopardizes the state’s death penalty because the U.S. Supreme Court considers “evolving standards of decency” when considering the issue. A Senate proposal originally required unanimous jury recommendations, but lawmakers ultimately struck a deal --- backed by Bondi and prosecutors --- in which at

focus of an awful lot of money being invested in convincing people that one or the other side should be vilified or demonized. That’s not at all true.” It’s the prism through which Smith tends to view the race, at least in overarching terms. “I think he’s more ideological than I am,” Smith said of Perry. “I think I’m more pragmatic.” At the same time, Smith’s way of governing and experience have exposed him to charges that he is an insider at a time when voters want to shake up the system. Smith countered that he hasn’t held elected office in a decade. “In a year when people ‘want an outsider,’ I think what they really are saying (is), they want somebody who’s not going to march to the party line, who’s not going to be owned by any one interest,” Smith said. “And if they would check my voting record, it is probably the most independent that there ever was up there.” Perry doesn’t argue against his profile as a small-government conservative --- one who follows the belief that many government programs start out with noble but perhaps misguided intentions. “Government is an inefficient delivery of services,” Perry said. “That’s just the nature of it.” But Perry has also taken on at least one issue not usually associated with Republicans: promoting the role of music in the classroom. He sponsored legislation in the 2016 session that would have created a three-year pilot program providing incentives to school districts to set up music education programs in early elementary

least 10 jurors were required to favor death for the sentence to be imposed. “Refusing to make a steady, reasoned review of the situation is what led to the chaos our court system is now dealing with. Lives are literally at stake. Have patience. Take a breath,” Pete Mills, an assistant public defender in the 10th Judicial Circuit who is chairman of the Florida Public Defender Association’s death penalty steering committee, said in a telephone interview Friday. “If the Court attempts to fix this on their own, it could be a violation of the separation of powers recognized in our state’s Constitution,” Mills said. “They run the risk of misinterpreting what the Legislature will do. The Legislature might have bigger plans.” Incoming Senate President Joe Negron, a Stuart Republican who will take over as head of the chamber after the November elections, told The News Service of Florida this week that there was “no ambiguity” regarding the need for unanimous jury recommendations following the state Supreme Court opinions.

school. It is a pushback, he said, against attempts to pigeonhole children too early in their academic careers. “We’ve seen this movement over years of taking what I believe are intrinsically creative children and driving the creativity out of them,” Perry said. The race took a strange turn last month when Perry got involved in an altercation with another man, Robert Leppla, over a campaign sign. The conflict escalated, with Perry ultimately striking Leppla in an incident caught by a nearby security camera. State Attorney R. J. Larizza, who works in a different circuit, was brought in because of a conflict of interest for Gainesville-area State Attorney Bill Cervone. Larizza declined to move forward with the case because, according to a memo from his office, “the allegations do not meet the standard for a criminal prosecution.” Perry said the dispute with Leppla escalated because Leppla spoke vulgarly about Perry’s wife and spit on the lawmaker. But he said Cervone and members of the Gainesville Police Department worked to keep the issue alive as long as possible to help Smith, who is backed by Cervone and has represented police officers. “They did that for a specific reason, and that is to drag it out and keep it in the front of the papers and make this an issue,” Perry said. Smith said he has declined to make political hay out of the incident. “I never paid any attention to that,” he said.

Negron, a lawyer, said that lawmakers could deal with the issue during next year’s 60-day legislative session, which begins in March. Bernie McCabe, the state attorney in the 6th Judicial Circuit in Pasco and Pinellas counties, said he believes prosecutors can move forward because the state Supreme Court, in the decisions last week, “has established the procedures necessary if you’re going to seek the death penalty.” But McCabe also said that the attorney general’s concern about clarification is valid. “We have cases pending that need to be resolved, and there is perhaps confusion over the proper mechanism over how to resolve them,” he said. McCabe said he is trying two cases in which he is seeking the death penalty that are at a critical stage. “I think we can go ahead. Others will perhaps disagree,” he said. “I can see where it might be helpful if the Supreme Court just came out and said, OK, judges here’s what you do, and go ahead and do it.”

The Museum is deeply grateful to those whose contributions have made this exhibition possible. Donor names will be recognized within the gallery to signify their significant contribution to the strength of the Permanent Collection and ongoing legacy of the Pensacola Museum of Art. A Manhattan native, Joseph Constantino was raised only steps away from some of the world’s most beautiful buildings. Although traveling is what ignited his passion for architectural details, he ultimately came back to the states and captured the buildings surrounding him in both New York and Florida. Infrared, street, and solarization are the prime area of interest for Constantino. He has been addicted to black and white photography since the 70s when he built a darkroom in his home. The Pensacola Museum of Art is pleased to exhibit the architectural photographs captured in focus by Joseph Constantino. The exhibit will showcase 30 of the artist’s pieces; 20 monochrome solarized and 10 color solarized images.

During this class time, they design new solutions for known problems and issues that affect local and global communities. Students have complete access to technology like VEX robotics kits, a 3-D printer and scanner, one-to-one laptop access, an InFocus interactive board, digital drawing and graphics tablets, and much more. By encouraging information and communications technology and literacy, EDS prepares each student for jobs in a future that is yet to be defined. Through collaborative and creative problem-solving activities that include science, technology, engineering, art, math, robotics and each child’s natural passion for handson learning, the Innovation Lab connects learning to life outside the classroom, creating meaningful and memorable experiences. After school, it is the workplace for Episcopal Day School’s robotics team--the RoboJags. In this space, they have the tools to imagine, plan, and build robots to compete against schools across Escambia County. Last fall, the RoboJags received awards for web design and robust design at The Emerald Coast BEST Robotics Competition hosted by the University of West Florida. In addition, the all female RoboJags team came in first place overall in the International Robofest Competition in Pensacola. Eighth grade student and RoboJags team member Gracie Dunaway says, “EDS provides tools and all the technology that you can use to create and construct anything that your imagination desires.” Because of the generosity of the Kugelman family, students like Gracie will continue to create and construct, surrounded by all of the tools they need to be successful. For more information about the Kugelman Innovation Lab and the additional programs at Episcopal Day School, please contact Alyssa Tucker, Director of Development, at (850) 434-6544, or visit edscc.org

YMCA Receives $100K Gift from Pen Air to Name Community Room

On Wednesday, Oct. 12 at 11 am Pen Air Federal Credit Union announced the gift of $100,000 to the Bear Levin Studer Family YMCA. The gift will name the Pen Air Federal Credit Union Communerosity Room. “It is important to us that our community continuously strives to be healthy and strong, not only in a physical sense, but also financial,” said Stu Ramsey, president and CEO of Pen Air. “This gift shows our investment in both the physical and financial health and well-being of our local community, not only now but as we look to the future.” The Communerosity Room will serve as a place for the community to participate in physical and financial fitness.

CyberThon 2017 Announces Free Training, Open Enrollment

Third annual cybersecurity challenge now features financial security theme and open enrollment for locals Gearing up early for its third annual cybersecurity challenge event, CyberThon officials have announced improvements that include an online banking financial theme and enrollment open to any high school or college student in the Pensacola region. CyberThon 2017 is set for January 20 to 22 at the National Flight Academy, hosted by the AFCEA Blue Angels Pensacola Chapter. The event brings together community leaders, cyber experts and a cadre of cyber competitors from local schools to participate in real-world cyber operations and defense sessions. Multiple free training sessions have been scheduled in the next three months in an effort to improve the event experience for students and mentors alike. “One of the best ways we can improve the effectiveness of CyberThon is to help the students be more prepared for the challenges,” said AFCEA Pensacola Chapter president Randy Ramos. “We’re excited to offer some basic cybersecurity training in advance that will bring students and mentors up to speed on the specific tools and environment they’ll be using when it’s time for the main event. It’s a time investment for us and the participants, but it’s an investment that will pay off with even greater personal skills and ultimately workforce development, which is the primary mission of CyberThon.” The free, pre-event training courses will be hosted on Saturdays in computer classrooms at Global Business Solutions, Inc. in Pensacola beginning October 22 and running through early January. Classes are offered on various dates so students and mentors can choose a time that works for their schedule, and a free lunch is provided. Full registration details are posted on the AFCEA Pensacola website at afceapensacola. org/cyberthon. All training and the CyberThon event is free for participants, but space is limited and stu-

The YMCA plans to program numerous exercise classes throughout the week, as well as partner periodically with Pen Air to host financial education courses. “A gift of this level from Pen Air Federal Credit Union will allow The Bear Levin Studer Family YMCA to serve more people every day,” said Bill Seedes, Executive Director of the YMCA. “An investment in our Y is investment in the future health and well-being of the entire community, enabling us to impact more families, individuals, and seniors. We’re especially thrilled to accept this generous gift late in our campaign, as we are on the brink of opening this new world-class Y.”

dents are encouraged to register as soon as possible. Another change for CyberThon 2017 is the implementation of a themed cyber environment. Major sponsor Navy Federal Credit Union is developing a simulated online banking environment that uses Jeopardy-style challenges that guide students to answer questions, find cyber vulnerabilities, and harden their network to defend against attacks. In January 2016, CyberThon saw sponsorships and participation double in the event’s second year, and AFCEA leaders expect more growth in 2017. “We were thrilled to grow from an exciting community event to one of our region’s premiere cybersecurity challenges in just our second year,” said AFCEA Pensacola Vice President of Awards and Education Tony Ferguson. “We’ve received fantastic support from sponsors and our community, so now our focus moves to improving the quality of CyberThon by maximizing the space and resources we have.” Event organizers say they can accommodate as many as 70 student participants for the January, 2017 event. Sponsorships are already being formed, and organizations interested in being a sponsor can find details at afceapensacola.org/ cyberthon. In support of the Department of Homeland Security’s mission statement that “Homeland Security Begins with Hometown Security,” the three-day event will also include keynote addresses on cybersecurity trends and expert panel discussions. Cybersecurity continues to be a rapidly growing industry with strong demand for skilled technical workers, and Escambia County offers a wealth of training and career opportunities for interested students. Pensacola is also home to many of the leading tech firms in the region. As the leading organization for increasing technology information in the defense, homeland security and intelligence communities, AFCEA and the local Blue Angels Pensacola chapter are thrilled to be hosting CyberThon 2017.
