From the Alliance for Constitutional Sex Offense Laws:
The federal judge to whom the IML lawsuit was assigned has canceled [JULY 9th] hearing on the government’s Motion to Dismiss the entire case. According to Judge John F. Walter, he will make a decision based solely upon the documents filed both in support of, and in opposition to, that motion. The judge has no deadline by which he is required to make a decision on the motion. The judge’s decision on the government’s motion will be posted on this website as soon as it is available.

I think an important complaint against IML is it doesn’t establish which registering authority takes precident. If you were convicted of a federal tier I offense with a ten year obligation to register then your federal registration could run out before your state obligation in say Texas (another ten years later) or at the same time in Puerto Rico (where I believe the law is the same as the federal obligation).
But if you left Texas or Puerto Rico or any other place where you no longer were compelled to register and planned a trip to Thailand then you wouldn’t have to notify anyone of your travel if you departed from Dallas Fort Worth airport. But if you instead left the country via Miami and your flight was delayed more than 3 days you’d have to register in Florida and tell them you were about to leave the country triggering an IML notice.
So who’s registration authority takes precident? Your federal obligation which expired first? Your registration in Texas which ended via due process after your sentence ended, or Florida the state you were required to register in longest? I’d you left for London or Thailand or even the Moon via DFW nobody would have been notified, but if you took that same flight after visiting family for a week in Florida then anywhere you went would receive a Green Notice that you were traveling there to commit more sex crimes.
Ok, let me clear this up for you. If you are registered in Florida then you will show up in the National Sex Offender database. If you would like confirmation of that there here is the link for that lovely site.

It doesn’t matter who you tell or do not tell. If you book a ticket in the USA a green notice will be sent out regardless of what state you are in or where you fly out of.
If you are listed on the Florida sex offender registry then you will never be free until you are released from that registry and that is currently for the duration of your entire LIFE.
It really is quite simple – Once Florida has you they never let you go regardless of where you move.
The ONLY way to get your life back is to join the legal case to have citizens who have moved out of the state of Florida removed from the site’s registry. That would cut it in half immediately so naturally they will fight that reality.
Hope that brings some clarification to a very murky topic.
Standing by to see the results.
