- The Criminal Justice Standards and Training Commission hereby gives notice:
That on June 10, 2011, the Criminal Justice Standards and Training Commission has issued an order.
On June 3, 2011, the Criminal Justice Standards and Training Commission, received a petition for an emergency permanent waiver of paragraph 11B-27.00213(4)(b), F.A.C., by the Florida Department of Corrections on behalf of 190 officers. paragraph 11B-27.00213(4)(b), F.A.C., requires officers on a Temporary Employment Authorization to have a four year break in service if they separate from employment while in good standing. Notice of receipt of the petition was published in the Sun Sentinel on June 9, 2011, and on the FDLE website.
On June 10, 2011, at an emergency meeting held telephonically, the Commission found that the Petitioners situation is unique. The Petitioner demonstrated that the strict application of the Commissions rules in this case would violate the principles of fairness. The Petitioners TEA officers had, in fact, complied with all aspects of paragraph 11B-27.00213(4)(b), F.A.C. and Section 943.131(1), F.S. The TEA officers were involuntarily separated from employment with the Petitioner while in good standing because of the Petitioners budgetary issues. The Commission found that the purposes of the underlying statute, Section 943.131(1), F.S., to ensure that TEA officers do not voluntarily separate from TEA employment while in good standing merely to pursue a more attractive TEA elsewhere, will be met by granting this waiver request. The Commission granted the Petitioners waiver permanently for the June 3, 2011, separation. The TEA officers may obtain another TEA without waiting four years from June 3, 2011.
