I know “tiny steps”, but any word on the ex post facto challenge?

In reply to Florida Action Committee. Well, i don't currently reside on the tracks or under a bridge, but I did send an e-mail. i was thinking that any blow to these laws a good thing as they impact people other than recent parolees. The problem that I see with newer post 2005 registrants is that the Miami-Dade law is essentially "in compliance" with the state law that impacts those folks, but the county appears to have gone beyond that and imposed their local restrictions on people who're not and can not be subjected to the underlying state restrictions. I may be wrong, but the way I read the ordinance it applies to ANYONE who was not already residing in their "non-compliant" home prior to 2005.

Plaintiffs are currently those homeless at the railroad tracks.
If you have a fact pattern that you think might fit – write to legal@floridaactioncommittee.org.

I sent you folks an e-mail asking about joining the case as a person convicted between 1997-2004 for who residency restrictions were a statutorily mandated special condition of probation. Any interest of should just plead on my own? Time is getting short. It looks like I have less tan a month to get in.

This wait until March is better than nothing happening at all. This wasn’t the case in the last few years. Things are moving here in Florida, other Federal jurisdictions and even in the Supreme court. We have never had this type of ball roll before, so this is most welcoming. Thank you for all your efforts and support.
