Florida Supreme Court Rules FDLE has No Standing to Set Aside Removal from the Registry
For the second time that the issue has come before the Supreme Court of Florida and for the second time that the decision was unanimous, the Supreme Court put an end to the FDLE’s attempt to reverse a Trial Court’s Order removing a registrant from the Florida Sex Offender Registry.
Florida Statute Section 943.0435(11) provides a mechanism for people on the registry to be removed from their obligation to register if they meet certain criteria.
The petitions are brought in the Criminal Division of the Circuit Court and the decision is made by a Circuit Court Judge. In nearly every case, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement will move to vacate and set aside the Order or will Appeal the order (or in many cases, both).
Attorney Ron Kleiner, who has represented several dozen individuals who have secured removal of the requirement to register, has been dragged to District Courts across Florida multiple times, and to the Supreme Court twice now, and has not lost. Today he got another win, and more importantly, another among our population is free from the irrational and ineffective burdens of registration.
We can’t say why the FDLE is so reluctant to let go of anyone – these people have all lived arrest free for decades – but the FDLE sure puts forth a lot of effort. Hopefully this latest decision will curb some of that.

The criminals running the FDLE are right up there with the cesspool in Tallahassee. Gotta maintain those budgets and obey the lobbyists.
When they raided my autistic son and found nothing on his devices, they took everything…his tower pc, very pricey MacBook, iPad, iPhone and tv. The tv because he “might have looked at something ‘illegal’ on it”. They’re sickos to do what they do to other humans.
They only found DELETED photos, fragments of files, and charged him with 20 counts, 2 were thrown out, on the tower pc. Deleted upon seeing the downloads.
They gave back the tv and one other non-tech item after our attorney talked to them. When he met with us to give back our daughter’s laptop which they also took, we asked the creepy detective about our son’s other devices on which nothing was found. NOTHING WAS FOUND. He said they had already been disposed…they were distributed amongst the badged thieves.
What kind of weak mind can be programmed to think this is at all acceptable? To steal from people after kidnapping them? It has to be someone who is already of the thievery bully mindset and easily manipulated to do very bad things. Because I, for one, could NEVER do that to another soul.
So they want to hold our autistic son hostage the rest of his life for 18 deleted photos. Yeah, that makes so much sense. No first time “offense” warning. They go straight for the jugular. Evaluated and a few years of private therapy. Therapists testified in court that his curiosities and interests were normal male adult oriented and that he is not a danger to anyone. And it’s cost us around $70K+.
The system is satanic, evil to the core. It’s all about money and control. Sacrificing for their god in which they trust, $$$$$$$$$$$.
They are the biggest, legalized criminal organization in Florida, that serves the cesspool in Tallahassee. Realize…the cesspool CONjures the legal fictions, FDLE are their enforcers.
Law enforcement has NEVER EVER been about protecting and serving we the people. They enforce the oppression and persecution of we the people. And they make us pay for it, first in property taxes. It’s a gigantic scam system.
My name is Lawrence Scoma and I am the executive director of Woodlands Reentry Camp in Tallahassee. We have a 67 year old man that wear an ankle transmitter that communicates his location. He is also required to carry a cell-phone-type device that is also a tracking device. This past April he came to class without the hand-held device and during class realized that the device was not in his holster. He went to his room to retrieve the device and was on our security cameras at all times. The Judge, State Attorney and the Public Defender in Monroe County were all notified about the situation but they arrested him and brought him back to the Monroe prison. This occurred in April of this year and he has not yet gone to a hearing. They have once again set a new date, September 14, as his new hearing date. He will have been incarcerated for six (6) months for forgetting his cell-phone-type device. Does the Action Committee have any cases or data that I can use for reference as I bring this issue to authorities? I also want to thank the Action Committee for filing their case. I am following it and look forward to it’s success.
When I was on probation say I forgot the ankle monitor black brick I would go back to jail also take serve entirety of the 5 years for me original FTR my RV with office. I was told by 2nd in charge at hernando one person did what you said forgot it in his vehicle as he grabbed a soda in gas Station and I was able to track that specific incident thru the probation chatter. The guy is serving 5 years also. So they are trying to push civil commitment via Ryce act not saying they where going to use it against me but DA warned me. Also classes once your done worh probation also also jail you have to pay for until they say your better. My other friend going thru that too. I have been tracking many FTR across state or even probation violation outcomes and its rarely nice.
The filing is outstanding but our county, Hillsborough, is not included. Please explain
A win in named counties may establish a precedent for all other counties.
Barbara, your question is answered here: https://floridaactioncommittee.org/teams/legal-committee/fac-v-glass-et-al/
I believe that FDLE should be sanctioned for frivolity if they are continually wasting the court’s time by seeking certiori – especially if their cause is malicious! (Maybe I’m off base. I am not a lawyer.)
If the Florida Supreme Court wants to prevent FDLE from filing further suits of this nature, they should bill them, multiplied by whatever Florida tort law allows.
