AI Summary
This bill amends Florida's public records law to create an exemption from disclosure for the personal identifying and location information of current appellate court clerks, as well as their spouses and children. The exemption is intended to protect the safety of appellate court clerks and their families, who may become targets for acts of revenge due to their professional duties. The bill also extends the existing exemption for such information related to judges, justices, and judicial assistants to cover appellate court clerks. The exemption is subject to future legislative review and repeal, and the bill provides a statement of public necessity for the exemption.
