And, FDLE Commissioner Rick Swearingen says a court agreed.<\/p>\n \u201cIn September, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Florida issued a preliminary injunction preventing the language from going into effect on October 1st, suggesting it was overbroad and vague,\u201d he said, during Tuesday\u2019s Cabinet meeting. \u201cThe requirement for these individuals to register internet information has been an important tool for law enforcement in combatting the exploitation of minors.\u201d<\/p>\n So, Swearingen says updating the law will be a top legislative priority for him in 2017.<\/p>\n \u201cWe plan to propose language to clarify the definition of internet identifiers and the scope of requirement language and second, an exemption regarding the collected information,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Weekly Updates – Florida Sex Offender One Stop Resource 11th Circuit Rules against Miami-Dade\u2019s request for a rehearing in SORR Challenge Posted by fac-admin on December 8, 2016 in Articles, Featured Articles | 1 comment Miami-Dade County requested a rehearing on FAC\u2019s appeal (which we won) in our sex offender residency restriction challenge.
