11B-27.00212Maintenance of Officer Certification

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on July 11, 2013, the Criminal Justice Standards and Training Commission, received a petition for a temporary eight-month waiver of subsection 11B-27.00212(11), F.A.C., by Marilyn Doster. Petitioner wishes to waive that portion of the rule which requires an officer to obtain employment within four years of separating from a previous employment. The Petitioner states that she is in the process of becoming employed by Broward County Sheriff’s Office since November of 2012. The agency is in the process of conducting Petitioner’s background investigation as part of Petitioner’s pre-hiring package. The Petition states that the operation of the rule would violate the principles of fairness because Petitioner has almost completed her pre-hiring requirements and her certificate is set to expire August 26, 2013. The Petition states that the operation of the rule creates a substantial hardship for both Petitioner and Broward County Sheriff’s Office in that neither will have the benefit of employing Petitioner after completing an extensive pre-employment screening. The Petitioner further supports the requested waiver by stating that she is applying to other agencies. Petitioner asserts a severe economic hardship for her if the rule waiver is not granted because of lost income.

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].
