PURPOSE AND EFFECT: The Clerk of the Court Revenue Remittance System was developed for Florida clerks of the court to remit taxes, fees, fines, reimbursements, court costs, or other court-related funds collected to the Department for distribution. This system was developed jointly by the Department and the Florida Association of Court Clerks to implement Section 213.13, F.S. Rule Chapter 12-28, F.A.C., currently provides for the electronic remittance of the funds and for the electronic transmission of return/remittance detail for the funds. The purpose of this rulemaking is to remove these obsolete rules and forms that were previously used for the remittance of funds collected under Section 938.01, F.S., by the clerks of the court to the Department for distribution.
SUMMARY: The proposed repeal of Rule 12-14.003, F.A.C. (Remittance of Costs to the Department of Revenue) removes obsolete provisions that are no longer used by the Department for the remittance of funds collected under Section 938.01, F.S., by the clerks of the court to the Department.
The proposed repeal of Rule 12-14.005, F.A.C. (Form for Remittance of Costs to the Department of Revenue) removes the adoption, by reference, of obsolete Form DR-143, Remittance of $3.00 Additional Court Costs.
SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS: No Statement of Estimated Regulatory Cost was prepared.
Any person who wishes to provide information regarding a statement of estimated regulatory costs, or provide a proposal for a lower cost regulatory alternative must do so in writing within 21 days of this notice.
