11B-27.00212:Maintenance of Officer Certification

The Criminal Justice Standards and Training Commission hereby gives notice that it has issued an order. On July 11, 2013, the Criminal Justice Standards and Training Commission received a petition for a permanent waiver of subsection 11B-27.00212(11), F.A.C., by Marilyn Doster Trollinger. Subsection 11B-27.00212(11), F.A.C., requires officers to become re-employed within four years of the date of their last separation from employment. Notice of receipt of the petition was published in the Florida Administrative Register Volume 39, Number 136, on July 12, 2013. The Petition was supported by the Petitioner’s prospective employer, Broward County Sheriff’s Office.

On August 8, 2013, at its regularly scheduled business agenda meeting held in Ponte Vedra, FL, the Commission found that the Petitioner’s situation is not unique. The Petitioner did not demonstrate that the strict application of the Commission's rules in this case would violate the principles of fairness. The Petitioner’s four years to become employed will expire on August 26, 2013. The prospective employer has already determined that it is considering hiring Petitioner. The Commission found that the purposes of the underlying statute, Section 943.1395(1), F.S., to ensure that officers meet strict qualification criteria and minimum training requirements, would not be addressed in an alternative method by granting this rule waiver. The Commission denied the Petitioner's waiver request.

A copy of the Order or additional information 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].
