The above cases are hereby consolidated, on the Court's own motion, for all
purposes. From this date forward, all documents pertaining to the above
consolidated cases should be filed electronically through the Florida Court's EFiling
Portal using case number SC19-1266 only.
Pursuant to the provisions of article IV, section 10, Florida Constitution, and
section 16.061, Florida Statutes, the Attorney General of Florida has requested this
Court's opinion as to whether the text of the proposed amendment titled "Prohibits
Possession of Defined Assault Weapons" complies with article XI, section 3, Florida Constitution, and whether the proposed ballot title and substance comply
with section 101.161, Florida Statutes.
Section 16.061, Florida Statutes, requires the Attorney General, within thirty
days after receipt of the proposed amendment or revision to the State Constitution
by initiative petition, to petition this Honorable Court for an advisory opinion
regarding compliance of the text of the proposed amendment with article XI,
section 3, Florida Constitution, and compliance of the proposed ballot title and
substance with section 101.161, Florida Statutes.
The full text of the Attorney General's letter is attached hereto as an exhibit
and made a part thereof.
On September 9, 2019, the Financial Impact Estimating Conference, in
accordance with the provisions of section 100.371(5)(a), Florida Statutes,
forwarded to the Office of the Attorney General a financial impact statement on the
initiative petition. Section 16.061(3), Florida Statutes, provides for this Honorable
Court to review the financial impact statement to determine whether it is in
accordance with section 100.371, Florida Statutes.
IT IS, THEREFORE, the order of the Court that opponents must file their
briefs on or before October 14, 2019, and serve a copy thereof on the Attorney General. Proponents must file their answer briefs on or before November 4, 2019.
Opponents may file reply briefs on or before November 14, 2019. Briefs
submitted will be available on the Court's public online docket at
http://onlinedocketssc.flcourts.org/DocketResults/CaseByYear?CaseNumber=1266
&CaseYear=2019.
Oral argument is scheduled for 9:00 a.m., Tuesday, February 4, 2020. A
maximum of twenty minutes to the side is allowed for the argument. Parties who
have filed a response and have asked to be heard may, in the Court's discretion, be
permitted to participate in oral argument. **Corrected October 3, 2019, to direct "opponents," rather than "interested
parties," to file briefs on or before October 14, 2019.**
