Preliminary Injunction GRANTED!!!
The Judge’s Order was just filed in our Motion seeking to enjoin the enforcement of the Internet Identifier changes and WE WON!!!
Here is an excerpt from the decision: The definition is hopelessly vague, chills speech protected by the First Amendment, and is far broader than necessary to serve the state’s legitimate interest in deterring or solving online sex crimes. This order grants a preliminary injunction.
The full order can be read here: https://floridaactioncommittee.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Preliminary-Injunction-Order.pdf
We will follow up with more commentary but wanted to share this with you as soon as it came off the press!!!

GREAT NEWS! I wonder how much it cost the state to print up the notice’s and send them out> I never Opened mine can i mark it ?S in big letters and put return to sender on it?!
I wouldn’t do that. They would probably notify the local Sheriff’s office that the letter came back and you’d likely get an extra address verification this month.
thats true, i’m putting up a fence soon i think privacy out front, then i wonder how they will do the compliance check?
In the judgement it says it will lapse on the 3rd of October if the $500.00 fee is not paid. How can I contribute to those costs?
Appreciate the offer ML – we should have that covered, but if you want to help contribute to our next legal challenge; there is a link at the top of this page for Donate 🙂
So what’s this mean.
This means the FDLE cannot enforce the new definition of Internet Identifier that was supposed to be implemented this Saturday.
that you don’t have to report anything other than what you have been reporting.
Great news!!! So when will this information be sent to all the sheriff’s offices and probation offices to let them know they can’t enforce this on us after the 1st?
No clue – might want to ask your PO
I talked to her last weekend and they don’t have any clue on the rules or how to enforce it. But the new rules say we have to report it to the PO’s so I wonder if that part the law is now void as well.
In my opinion, if LEA And Probation doesn’t understand Enforcement, then the Bill is Unenforceable!
I knew we would prevail. This is just a start to something wonderful. Great Job!
Thank God.
Finally seems like the ship is turning! Make sure we pay the BILL… 🙂
I pray that this is not the end and we can get off the registery for good. even though I am moving on with my life. I still live in constant fear even though I have no desire to ever do what I did. I just want these people to leave us alone and give that second chance that we deserve bottom line.
