11B-27.00212: Maintenance of Officer Certification

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on November 15, 2011, the Criminal Justice Standards and Training Commission, received a petition for a permanent waiver of subsection 11B-27.00212(14), F.A.C., from Lake Wales Police Department on behalf of one officer for the 2008 reporting period (7/1/2006 – 6/30/2008). Subsection 11B-27.00212(14), F.A.C., requires officers to requalify with a firearm every two years on a course of fire mandated by Commission rule and supervised by a CJSTC-certified firearms instructor. The petition supports the requested waiver by stating that the officer at issue did successfully complete the course of fire, however, there is no CJSTC 86A form on file showing that the officer completed the course of fire. Petitioner states that the officer will suffer a substantial hardship if his certification is rendered inactive as a result of this situation. Petitioner further states that it would violate the principles of fairness to fail to recognize that the officer did successfully complete the requirement simply because his CJSTC 86A form is missing for the 2008 mandatory firearms requalification for the officer.
A copy of the Petition for Variance or Waiver may be obtained by contacting: Grace A. Jaye, Assistant General Counsel, Florida Department of Law Enforcement, P. O. Box 1489, Tallahassee, FL 32302 or by telephoning [phone].
