  • TALLAHASSEE WEEKLY REPORT April 2-6, 2012 Florida Supreme Court
    TALLAHASSEE WEEKLY REPORT April 2-6, 2012 Florida Supreme Court The Florida Supreme Court announced this week that Justice Ricky Polston was unanimously selected to serve as the Court’s next Chief Judge. Polston, who will replace current Chief Justice Charles Canady, will begin his two-year term on July 1. Justice Polston, appointed to the Court by former Governor Crist, was one of two dissenting votes, along with Justice Canady, when the Court voted to reject the Senate’s redistricting plan. Justice Polston served on the First District Court of Appeal, from 2001-2008, until his appointment to the Supreme Court by Governor Crist. He is a 1986 graduate of the Florida State University School of Law. Deep Dredge Governor Scott received SB 1998 this week, the transportation bill that includes language that would expedite the administrative review process for the port’s deep dredge project. The Governor has until April 21 to act on the bill. The Sierra Club has asked the Governor to veto the bill. The Biscayne Bay Waterkeeper and Tropical Audubon Society also oppose the dredge language, stating that dredging and blasting of the bay would destroy coral reefs and sea grass, as well as marine life, such as manatees. The dredge language was also included in HB 599. Bill Action The Governor signed the following bills of interest to Miami-Dade County into law this week: HB 37, Knowingly and Willfully Giving False Information to a Law Enforcement Officer, Rep. Diaz – this bill was filed on the heels of the Casey Anthony case, and creates “Caylee’s Law”.

The incoming governor, cabinet, and legislature all talk about being business-friendly, and we hope two things: A. That means they will listen to us about what is and is not “business-friendly” B. “Business-friendly” does not apply only to large politically active corporations ISSUES FREEZE ON ADMINISTRATIVE RULES – One of the first actions by Governor Scott was to issue an executive order putting a freeze on any rulemaking. That has an impact on a lot of things, but the one that really counts for us is the halting of the rulemaking process for the 2010 Florida Building Code – we are in limbo.
