DISP-GRANTED
|
|
We conclude that the Governor's execution of a compact authorizing types of gaming that are prohibited under Florida law violates the separation of powers. The Governor has no authority to change or amend state law. Such power falls exclusively to the Legislature. Therefore, we hold that the Governor lacked authority to bind the State to a compact that violates Florida law as this compact does. We need not resolve the broader issue of whether the Governor ever has the authority to execute compacts without either the Legislature's prior authorization or, at least, its subsequent ratification. Because we believe the parties will fully comply with the dictates of this opinion, we grant the petition but withhold issuance of the writ.

ORDER-OTHER SUBSTANTIVE DY
|
|
The Motion for Entry of Writ of Quo Warranto filed by Gulfstream Park Racing Association, Inc., is hereby denied. Gulfstream, which participated as amicus curiae, attempts to raise a new issue in this proceeding. "[I]t is axiomatic that amici are not permitted to raise new issues." Riechmann v. State, 966 So. 2d 298, 304 n.8 (Fla. 2007). Because the issue of the alleged continuing operations of the Seminole Tribe of Florida is not properly before this Court, Gulfstream's motion is denied.
