Bill Summary
Authorizing certain Supreme Court justices to have an appropriate facility in their district of residence designated as their official headquarters; increasing the number of circuit judges in certain judicial circuits; revising the circumstances under which an offense of retail theft constitutes a felony of the second or third degree, etc.
AI Summary
This bill makes several changes to the justice system in Florida:
It allows Supreme Court justices who reside outside of Leon County to have an official headquarters designated in their district of residence, eligible for subsistence and travel reimbursement when conducting business at the Supreme Court building. It increases the number of circuit judges in certain judicial circuits. It revises the circumstances under which an offense of retail theft constitutes a felony, expanding the time period for aggregating the value of stolen property and creating a new felony offense for conspiring to commit retail theft with intent to sell the stolen property. The bill also requires the Office of the State Courts Administrator to provide annual reports on problem-solving courts, and makes the establishment of military veterans and servicemembers court programs mandatory rather than discretionary.
